how to grow garlic at home in pots

The soil medium preferred by garlic is mixed with sand.

Prepare a container planting, namely polybag or pot.

Planting


  • Put the soil on the polybag
  • Plant garlic as deep as 2 to 3 cm on the ground that is already in the pot or polybag. Make sure that the pointed tip of the onion is facing upward so that it grows upward rather than sideways. (like advertisements, hehehe) Cover it again with soil. In the garlic that shoots have begun to grow, planting the leaves by letting the shoots remain above the soil surface.
  • Do watering just fine. Do not let it dry and do not make the soil muddy.
  • Give fertilizer once a week. And do not forget to give the intake of exposure to enough sunlight.
  • At the age of 2 weeks, usually leaves will appear and begin to rise. Be sure to pay attention and get rid of pests that can damage your garlic plant.
