The causes and control measures of the latest malformation of garlic

In recent years, with the increase of garlic planting area, the phenomenon of garlic deformity is becoming more and more common. there are many kinds of garlic malformation, but their formation not only seriously affects the economy and edible value of garlic, but also has a certain impact on yield. caused a lot of losses to farmers. So what is the reason for the abnormal growth of garlic? How to prevent and cure it? Let's take a look at the detailed introduction of the pro-agricultural network.

1. Baked garlic

Bread sour refers to the garlic in the harvest, the scales after the sun began to dehydrate into a film, with the hand to feel as soft as bread, the name bread garlic.

Cause: bread garlic is mainly caused by garlic seed, improper selection of garlic seed, or improper storage conditions, keep the room temperature between 14-16 degrees before sowing, or refrigerate at 0-5 degrees Celsius. If the temperature in the storeroom is too low or high humidity will cause the occurrence of bread garlic to increase.

2. Single-headed garlic

Single garlic as its name implies, the bulb has only one clove and no other lobes, so it is named single garlic.

Causes: there are many reasons, produced by the secondary bulb, the bulb is small during the growth, thus forming a single garlic; and caused by the propagation of small garlic cloves, the garlic cloves are too small during the growth, thus forming a single garlic; in addition, improper management of water and fertilizer during planting will also form single garlic.

3. Compound garlic

Compound garlic refers to the formation of garlic cloves after sprouting in the lateral buds of the bulb, while this new garlic clove is smaller, resulting in several garlic bulbs, resulting in low commercial value.

Cause: caused by low temperature before overwintering, such as low temperature treatment of garlic seeds before sowing, this will occur after growing and harvesting in the second year.

4. Loose garlic

Loose garlic is the opposite of compound garlic, which falls off when the bulb is still growing and forms into cloves, causing the cloves to be scattered.

Cause: the cause of loose clove garlic is mainly caused by early sowing and late harvest, which exceeds the best harvest time, resulting in bulb rot in the soil and dispersion of garlic cloves.

Prevention and cure measures

Seed selection must be strictly standardized, choose high-quality, good color, disease-free, disease-free, disease-free garlic cloves as garlic seeds, before sowing garlic seeds should be dried to avoid the emergence of breaded garlic. Sowing must grasp the appropriate time, should not be too early and too late, and in the harvest must be timely, when the leaves begin to wither, the pseudostem is soft but not brittle, this is the best time for harvest. When planting, it is necessary to strengthen management, strictly control the regulation of fertilizer and water, and water and fertilize reasonably according to the growth status of garlic, generally watering once in December, February and May, and the rest depends on the weather and soil.

The above are the causes and prevention measures of garlic malformation brought by pro-agricultural network. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about garlic planting technology, please pay attention to pro-agricultural network.
