The latest reason for the formation of garlic split head and loose petal

Garlic is one of our common seasonings, its garlic is wrapped in multiple layers of garlic skin, and the cloves will not break easily, but if the wrapped garlic leaves are reduced, the garlic cloves will split the garlic skin when it expands, resulting in the phenomenon of garlic head cracking and garlic cloves scattered. So what is the cause at this time? Let's take a look at the detailed introduction.

1. Variety reasons

There are many varieties of garlic, some varieties of seed envelope is thin, and garlic cloves are more thick, in the harvest or storage, it is easy to appear the phenomenon of loose cloves.

2. Improper sowing time

If the sowing time is too early, the plant appears premature senescence when the garlic bulb expands, which will lead to the withering and yellowing of the plant leaves and the early drying of the garlic skin, while the garlic cloves are very easy to break the outer skin and crack and scatter the petals. When sowing too late, there are fewer leaves during flower bud differentiation, and it is very easy to break the garlic skin when the garlic is inflated.

3. Improper field management

In the first half of the garlic harvest, if there is too much watering or more precipitation, the low-lying, well-drained land will accumulate water, while in the environment of high ground temperature and high humidity, the seed coat wrapped in garlic cloves is very easy to rot and form loose cloves.

4. The groundwater level is too high.

When garlic is planted in plots with high groundwater level and too sticky soil, the seed coat is very easy to rot due to poor soil permeability and good drainage, which is the same as not draining in time in the rainy season.

5. Improper harvest time

If the garlic bolts are harvested prematurely or break from the base when the garlic bolts are harvested, the garlic head is hollow, and the loose petal phenomenon is also easy to occur; if the garlic is harvested too late, the outer skin is thin, and when the soil moisture is high, the seed coat fertilizer is very easy to crack.
