Garlic Hydroponic Method
Today, the editor will introduce the content about fruits, vegetables, and garlic, specifically the hydroponic method for garlic. Let's learn about it together.
The hydroponic method of garlic has been very common in China. For young gardening enthusiasts, it is still necessary to learn from the experience of other gardeners. This article is about the experience of making a garlic hydroponic bonsai by gardening enthusiasts, for reference. The steps to create a garlic hydroponic bonsai are as follows:
Materials: Sprouting garlic; Container, any type of container is fine, with plates and bowls being the most suitable. Time: From the end of September to the Spring Festival of the following year, with October to December being the best period.
Method Steps:
1. Take the garlic, either peel the cloves and arrange them in a container (suitable for smaller containers), or peel off the outer skin of the garlic head to expose the cloves and place them directly in a container (can be placed in a larger container).
2. Add water directly, just covering the bottom of the garlic, which is beneficial for root growth.
3. Generally, change the water every 1 to 2 days to keep it fresh. In the early stages, you can go 3 consecutive days without changing the water to help with stabilization. After the roots are stabilized, the frequency of changing water can be increased.
4. Generally, after hydroponic culture, roots can grow on the same day, and green leaves can be seen 2 to 4 days later.
Uses:
1. You can observe how garlic seedlings grow, which can be comforting to watch.
2. The green garlic seedlings are as beautiful as fresh narcissus.
3. The mature green garlic seedlings can be harvested directly and you can taste the harm-free vegetables you've grown.
Harvesting: Generally, you can harvest 2 to 3 times, with the first few harvests only taking the part above the garlic cloves (white stem). The last harvest is done with the roots. The standard for the last harvest is when the nutrients in the garlic cloves in the water are completely depleted. As long as the timing is right, you can proceed with the next round of garlic hydroponics, following the same method. From October to the Spring Festival of the following year, you can continuously hydroponic 3 to 4 rounds, each lasting 40 to 50 days, ensuring continuous enjoyment of the green garlic seedlings from late autumn to early spring.
