The planting method and time of garlic, do you need to soak in water before planting?

Planting time: garlic can be sown in spring in the north and in autumn in the south. Land selection and preparation: choose well drained, loose and fertile soil for planting, ploughing the soil 20-25 cm deep. Sowing method: there is no need to soak the seeds when sowing, the seeds can be dried for 1-2 days, and 1-2 seeds can be sowed in each ditch. Field management: keep the soil moist during the growth period, fertilize mainly with organic fertilizer, and then apply a small amount of chemical fertilizer.

First, planting time

1. Garlic is a kind of crop that likes cold and cool environment, so it can be divided into spring sowing and autumn sowing according to the climate and varieties of each region. Generally in the north, the temperature is relatively low in autumn and winter, and the seedlings can not survive the winter safely, so it is not suitable for autumn sowing.

2. Through the method of raising seedlings in the greenhouse, garlic can be sown in early spring and then harvested in summer, while in the south, the climate in autumn and winter is warmer than that in the north, and when sowing in autumn, the seedlings can survive the winter safely in the open air, so they are mainly sown in autumn.

II. Land selection and preparation

1. Garlic does not have high requirements for planting soil, but it has a bumper harvest in soil rich in organic matter, good drainage, loose and fertile soil, so it is suitable to choose flat land for planting. Before planting, it is necessary to prepare the land and plough the soil 20-25 cm deep.

2. after fine ploughing, the soil is raked fine and flat, with no obvious stones or soil, and then make a border, which is about 1 meter long and 4 meters wide, and can also hit a border that is 50 centimeters long and 4 meters wide, depending on the actual situation.

Third, sowing method

The main results are as follows: 1. Garlic with large size and good color can be selected by artificial peeling and breaking. First, the trays and stem plates of garlic are removed, and then the cloves are graded. Garlic cloves with large grains, pure white appearance, no damage and no smooth skin are selected as seeds. Each clove is required to weigh up to 5g, and the size of the seeds is related to the yield, so try to choose the seeds with large particles.

2. Sowing and drying the seeds for 1-2 days will help to improve the germination rate. Be careful not to choose to dry the seeds in the period of high temperature, but when the temperature is 15-17 ℃, the climate is cool and the sun is not strong. If you dry the seeds when the sun is strong, the seeds may die directly.

3. Then sow seeds in trenches on the border surface with a depth of 4-5 cm and a row spacing of 20 × 16 cm. Each ditch can sow 1-2 seeds. After sowing, cover with a layer of thin soil after 1 cm, and water to make the soil moist.

IV. Field management

1. Garlic is a crop with relatively large water demand. During the growth period, it is necessary to keep the soil moist in order to make it grow rapidly. Generally, the whole growth period should be watered 4 times, the first time is after sowing, in order to make it germinate as soon as possible, the second time is the seedling stage, the third is the moss stage, the third is the moss stage, and the fourth is the bulb expansion period, to increase the bulb expansion moisture and avoid the poor growth of the bulb.

2. If you want to have a high yield, fertilization is also necessary. generally, organic fertilizer is the main fertilizer, and then a small amount of chemical fertilizer is applied; base fertilizer is the main fertilizer, topdressing is the auxiliary, and 5000 kilograms of mature organic fertilizer is applied per mu when planting. In matching with the right amount of compound fertilizer, spread it evenly on the plot.

3. In deep ploughing, it should be evenly mixed with soil, topdressing can be combined with watering, and weeding should be carried out at the same time, which is beneficial to increase soil permeability, prevent weeds from grabbing nutrients, and strengthen the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests in the later stage.
