Many gardeners and vegetable growers are faced with the fact that garlic begins to turn yellow.
This phenomenon occurs especially often in May-June.
Together with the expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , we figure out how to save the future harvest.
Garlic turns yellow: what to do
Garlic can turn yellow for a variety of reasons, and this is a clear sign that something is wrong with the plant.
The crop may be affected by fungus, it may not be getting enough water, or the soil may be too dry, as it is in late spring and early summer that garlic begins to need more water.
Therefore, experienced gardeners turn to two-penny remedies that will protect your plantings from destructive yellowing.
Take 10 liters of water, add 10 grams of boric acid and 15 drops of iodine. Mix the resulting solution thoroughly and water the plants with it.
Take note: you can water the garlic with this mixture only in the evening, when the heat subsides. The entire prepared mixture should be used up at one time.
