How to plant garlic, at what time, at what depth and what distances to leave between rows and plants, we will learn from this article.

Garlic planting time

To obtain a high and high-quality garlic harvest, it is important correct solution The question is when to plant garlic.

Winter garlic, as its name indicates, is planted before winter, so that the cloves take root well, but do not sprout.

Overwintering garlic is closely related to the development of the root system: the larger the root system, the less likely it is to freeze.

Research results confirm that before the onset of winter, a clove of garlic should have 12-18 roots 5-10 cm long. It takes approximately 35-45 days to develop such a root system.

Summarizing the experience of growing garlic in Ukraine, scientists determine the following lines for planting garlic:

When to plant winter garlic

• northern regions of Ukraine - third ten days of September
• central and western regions of Ukraine - first half of October
• south of Ukraine - second half of October
• Transcarpathia - second half of October

The practice of planting garlic in the first ten days of November is dangerous, especially in years with early and cold winters, when a significant part of the cloves die before they have time to take root.

If some of the winter garlic was not planted in the fall and the bulbs are well preserved, it can be planted in the spring. The success of cultivation depends both on the properties of the variety or local form, as well as on storage temperature and planting time.

Most winter varieties, when planted in spring, form a single-pronged bulb. Some produce a bulb divided into cloves, but smaller, as in autumn planting, and single cloves. More bulbs differentiated into cloves are obtained in the case of cold storage at temperatures from -5 to + 4 ° C and the earliest possible planting.

Delay in planting leads to massive formation of one-toothed grass, and storage during the winter at room temperature may cause plants to grow until late autumn, but usually without bulb formation.

When to plant spring garlic

Spring garlic is planted as quickly as possible, as soon as you can go into the field (third ten days of March - early April). Being late even by a few days leads to chopping of the bulbs and essential! reduction in yield. There are examples when the yield of spring garlic when planting 20th of March was 54% higher compared to landing on April 5th.

Planting patterns and feeding areas for garlic

The most common scheme for planting garlic in Ukraine, especially on large areas, is wide-row (row spacing 45 cm) or double-row strip (45 + 20) with a distance between rows of 20 and a wide row spacing of 45 cm. On smaller areas it is planted with a row spacing of 30 cm, small beds it is reduced to 20 cm, increasing the distance between plants.

In Poland, a four-row ribbon planting scheme for garlic with a wide row spacing of 54 and narrow rows of 27 cm is very common, which allows mechanized care and harvesting of the crop. Line plantings with row spacing of 30-40 cm are also recommended,

Lighting, nutritional, water-air regimes, which determine a certain level of yield, largely depend on the nutritional area, which, with certain planting schemes, is determined by the correctly established distance between plants in a row and will be equal to the product of the row spacing by this distance. In particular, according to the most common wide-row scheme in Ukraine, it will be 45 cm multiplied by a certain distance between plants in a row.

It is necessary to emphasize here that, due to its morphology and physiological nature, garlic occupies a relatively small feeding area, which is approximately from 90-100 to 360 cm2.

With a stable row spacing determined by the chosen planting scheme, the nutritional area will vary depending on the morphological nature of the garlic, in particular, the size of the clove, and therefore the plant. As a rule, spring garlic plants are smaller, and winter ones are larger, so the distance in the row between spring garlic plants will be less - 4-5 cm, winter garlic plants - greater (6-10, perhaps 12 cm).

The optimal food area can be considered 315 sq. cm (planting pattern 45×7 cm). An increase in the feeding area to 450 - 540 cm2 according to planting schemes of 45 x 10 and 45 x 12 cm leads to a decrease in the harvest volume per hectare (due to a decrease in the number of plants per hectare), but to a slight increase in its marketability due to an increase in the number of large and medium-sized plants. bulbs

Cloves weighing 2-3 g turned out to be more productive with a fairly high marketability in the variant with a feeding area of ​​225 cm2, where with a wide row spacing (45 cm) the distance between plants in the bed was 5 cm

In small areas (garden plots), the distance between rows can be reduced to 25-30 cm, maintaining optimal feeding area by increasing the distance between plants in the row, in particular according to the scheme 25 cm x 12 cm or 30 cm x 10 cm. In both cases we obtain a feeding area for a clove weighing 3-5 g, very close to optimal (315 cm2).

The feeding area depends not only on the size planting material, but also on soil fertility and characteristics of the variety. In particular on fertile soils with high agricultural technology it can be somewhat reduced. For tall varieties that develop a large mass, the feeding area should be increased.

Generally a marksman winter garlic It is better to grow in a wide row with a distance between rows of 45 cm and between plants in a line:

• large cloves weighing 6-9 m or more should be placed in a row at a distance of 8-10 cm with a feeding area of ​​45 x 8-10 cm, which is 360-450 sq. cm.
• for medium teeth, weighing 5 g 7 cm(feed area 45 x 7 = 315 cm2)
• for small ones, weighing 3 g, - 5 cm(feed area 45 x 5 = 225 cm2)
• for very small ones, 1-1.5 m,- 3 cm(food area 45 x 3 - 135 cm2)

How much garlic to plant per hectare

The sowing rate of garlic depends both on the feeding area of ​​one plant, which is determined by the planting scheme, and on the weight of the planting clove.

On a feeding area of ​​315 cm (45 x 7 cm), the number of cloves that need to be planted per 1 hectare (10,000 m2) is:

10000 m2: 0.0315 m2 = 317460 pcs./ha.

To determine the mass of cloves needed for planting per 1 hectare, you need to multiply the quantity by the average mass of the clove, namely: 317,460 pcs. cloves x 4-5 g (average 4.5 m) = 1429 kg of cloves per 1 ha.

When determining how much garlic is needed for planting on an area of ​​1 hectare, the norm of cloves needs to be increased by 5-7%, since the bulbs, in addition to the cloves, have integumentary scales, a bottom and part of the arrow. For ease of calculation, we provide a table of garlic planting rates per 1 hectare.

At what depth to plant garlic?

In the technology of growing garlic, it is also important at what depth to plant garlic. It is known that shallow planting of garlic leads to cloves sticking out of the soil with a fast-growing compact bunch of roots, and under unfavorable external conditions, the cloves die. Planting too deeply causes the crop to liquefy, stunting bulb growth and reducing yield.

The depth depends on the time of planting the garlic, the size of the clove and the mechanical composition of the soil. It is calculated from the base of the clove - the bottom, where the growth cone is located and the roots originate, to the soil surface.

• depth of planting garlic before winter (winter) from 7-8 to 10-12 cm
• The depth of planting garlic in spring (spring) is 5-7 cm.

The depth at which garlic is planted is of particular importance for winter garlic; it must be sprinkled so that the layer of soil above the cloves is at least 3-4 cm.

Medium cloves should be planted at 7-8 cm, large cloves should be planted at 8-10 to 12 cm. On light soils, cloves should be planted slightly deeper than on heavy soils. Reducing the temperature in the bottom zone to minus 12-14°C can lead to significant freezing of garlic. A drop in temperature is especially dangerous in November-December without snow.

To ensure adequate planting depth, especially in large areas, it is necessary to pre-cut planting furrows in accordance with the planting pattern, using a tractor marker or hiller after some conversion, or other mechanisms, for example, a slightly converted old corn planter.

When cutting furrows, pay special attention to their depth, since the depth of planting of garlic will depend on this.

How to plant garlic. Landing technique

Planting garlic is a complex and responsible process, on which the volume and quality of the harvest largely depends. A correctly planted clove should occupy a vertical position, its lower part must be pressed quite vigorously to the ground so that during digging it maintains a vertical position and begins to take root as soon as possible. The bottom of the clove should lie and be fixed on a sufficiently compacted bed, soil that is too loose is rolled up before planting. Rolling with light rollers can also be recommended after planting, especially on soils with light mechanical composition. If rolling is not provided, then it is advisable to raise a small hump, which will protect against low temperatures and contribute to better overwintering of the garlic.

The above conditions can best be met by manually planting garlic in pre-cut furrows 8-12 cm deep according to the planting pattern. In order for the furrows to open better, metal plates are welded to the chisel-like legs of the hiller. Place cloves of garlic into the prepared furrows at a given distance and cover them with the same undergar with loops or a hoe.

We emphasize that such planting most fully meets the biological requirements of the crop. However, manual planting requires quite a significant investment of money and a lot of work force in a tense autumn period. You can significantly reduce the cost of manual labor (20-25 times) by using special garlic planters for planting garlic, the productivity of which is 2.5-3.0 hectares per seven-hour working day. However, machine planting of garlic has a number of disadvantages compared to manual planting. The main thing is that during machine planting it is not possible to ensure that the clove hits the bottom down.

Selection of planting material

​There is another little trick why farmers choose garlic as their focus. The fact is that when growing garlic, you can choose winter varieties. For example, during the season, legumes, cabbage, and pumpkin were grown on the plot. Then, when the harvest was harvested, garlic was planted in the same place, which in early spring gives its first harvest in the form of fresh green sprouts, and by the beginning of summer you can dig up the ripe heads, which are dried in the sun. And the same plot of land can be used again for growing, for example, cucumbers or radishes. This crop rotation allows for the most efficient use of land, while achieving greater profitability.​

Wholesale price 1 kilogram of garlic in different regions varies depending on the variety and quality from 60 to 90 rubles. Even at the minimum price, your profit will be 480 thousand rubles. Taking into account expenses in the amount of 100 thousand rubles (which, with certain savings, can be reduced!), We get 380 thousand rubles “net”.

Growing garlic as a business - Business village

​So, let's get back to growing produce. In any case, it needs a site on which it will grow. This could be a garden plot or a place in a field. You will have to not only invest money in fertilizing the land and seeding, but also protect the harvest, because you can be left without it. Therefore, it is more advisable to plant in a place where it is possible to constantly monitor the products. Harvesting is carried out after the leaves turn yellow in dry, sunny weather. It is best to let the garlic dry in the sun for a while so that all the nutrients are transferred to the bulb, after which the stems are cut off, leaving 10 cm tails. You can use them to hang garlic, braiding it into braids. The roots are also removed without damaging the calyx. As mentioned above, there is a high demand for these products. To establish sales, pay special attention to organizations that produce food, in particular, meat processing and the production of various spices. In the inflorescences of the plant, small bulbs form on its stems. After ripening, their protective shell bursts. For vigorous sowing, the bulblets are stored in dried inflorescences until spring. Garlic bulbs. They serve for the two-year stage of growing garlic. In the first year, from the “aerial” bulb (as they are also called), a single-toothed bulb grows, used for planting on next year, and only after another year can you get full-fledged garlic for sale.​

Garlic business - making money in the village

​As I already said, it is much easier for land owners in this regard. Even if it's simple country cottage area 6 acres. You can always start small.

Growing garlic is one of the best ideas for small businesses. This culture is unpretentious and requires a minimum of attention and investment.

You can grow garlic even in a small garden plot and still reap a good harvest.

This business does not involve the purchase of expensive agricultural equipment and the hiring of workers. You can do all the work of planting, growing, harvesting and storing garlic yourself.

From the information presented below, you can find out what advantages and disadvantages the described business has, how to choose planting material, land, what type of garlic is best for growing, when and how to harvest it, as well as how to properly store and sell the crop.

Pros and cons of growing garlic

First, it’s worth finding out what advantages and disadvantages the described business has.

Advantages

• Minimum starting capital.
• No need for agricultural machinery.
• You can grow garlic on 20 acres of land.
• Easy care.
• Small.
• There is good demand for garlic among the population.

One of the main advantages of such a business is that anyone who has a dacha or Vacation home, – from schoolchild to pensioner.

Flaws

• At the initial stage, a lot of time is spent searching for a reliable supplier of high-quality seed sets.
• Like any crop, garlic requires soil fertilization, so you will have to spend money on them.
• When growing winter garlic, you will need sandy loam soil.
• With high yields and the absence of regular customers, sales problems arise.

The disadvantages are insignificant, but they should still be taken into account when drawing up a business plan and further implementation of the business.

Business Investments

Despite the simplicity and accessibility of growing garlic, financial expenses inevitable at the start. However, they are minimal when compared with others.

Conditional figures will be taken as an example.

So, it will take about 6,000 rubles to process the site. This includes plowing and harrowing the land, as well as preparing beds for seedlings.

Seed material for 20 acres will cost approximately 30,000 - 40,000 rubles. (200 kg at a price of up to 100 rubles per 1 kg.).

20 acres of land will require 8 tons of fertilizer - humus and peat. The cost of this will be at least 25,000 rubles. However, we must understand that this applies to growing crops on an industrial scale. For the same 20 acres, the amount of fertilizer can be reduced several times - the yield and quality will not suffer from this.

As for where to store garlic, there are two options:

1. Organize it in an existing building on a country site.
2. Build or prepare a room for storing crops.

In the latter case, the costs can be about 30,000 rubles.

As a result, business costs, if we take the figures given, are 91,000 rubles.

However, 30,000 rubles can be subtracted from the result obtained. (if you already have a ready-made warehouse) and approximately 15,000 rubles. (if there is no need for a large amount of fertilizer). Accordingly, the amount is reduced to 46,000 rubles.

It is worth recalling that the figures were taken as conditional. To get a more accurate result, it is necessary to analyze all financial aspects, from the cost of seeding and fertilizers to the arrangement of a warehouse.

How to register a business?

Since garlic will be grown for further sale, such activities are subject to mandatory registration.

You can register as an individual entrepreneur or as a limited liability company. The best option- IP.

To register, just go to the tax office, submit an application and register yourself individual entrepreneur to 01.13.4. The tax system is simplified tax system 6%.

There are no special permits for this business. However, at the time of registration, it would be useful to additionally consult the SES, since the legislation is constantly changing.

Advice: You can start preparing the land, purchasing and planting seedlings before registering your business with the tax office.

What variety of garlic should I grow?

There are two main varieties of garlic: winter and spring.

Winter garlic

This variety is ideal for the business described. This garlic is very resistant to frost, has high yield, large cloves and good taste. It is planted in the period September-October.

The highest-yielding varieties of winter garlic are:

• Lyubasha.
• Ryazhsky.
• Polessky.
• Messidor (Dutch garlic).
• Doctor.
• Autumn.
• Pluto.
• Gribovsky.
• Garkua.
• Saved.
• Scythian.

Spring

This variety of garlic grows well only in southern regions Russia, since he has a negative attitude towards cold, snow and frost. Accordingly, planted seedlings do not always produce the expected yield. It is better to grow it for yourself and at the dacha.

The highest yielding varieties of spring garlic:

• Elenovsky.
• Kledor.
• Flavor.

From the above, we can conclude that preference should be given to winter varieties of garlic, since they are best suited for growing for sale.

How not to make a mistake with planting material?

There are several types of garlic planting material:

• Sevok or single clove is an onion with one clove. It has good yield and a large number of cloves.
• Aerial bulbs are bulbs from the arrow. Grown as planting material for next year.
• The clove of the head of a mature onion is the first reproduction, or part of the head of garlic. One of the best seeds.

When choosing planting material, you need to pay attention to the head of garlic. If there are more than 4 cloves on it, including large ones, then the garlic is degenerate and will give a weak harvest.

Good planting material can be obtained from an aerial bulb. From it, seedlings are grown, which are planted again. The result will be good yield.

Regarding the first reproduction (the clove of the head of a mature bulb), it can be noted that this is also an excellent planting material. However, it is quite difficult to buy and is susceptible to various diseases that reduce the final yield.

The best option for business is purchasing seedlings. From it you can get not only a good harvest, but also seed for next year.

Selection of land

The planting site must be drained and fertile, and well lit.

It is better to grow garlic in a greenhouse, as this will protect it from various harmful weather conditions. This will also make it possible to achieve good yields.

It is advisable not to rent land, as it is expensive. Perfect option, If suburban area is owned. Accordingly, such a business is suitable for those who live in a private house or who have a dacha.

Do you need agricultural machinery?

The presence of agricultural machinery is not necessary for such a business. However, cultivating a plot of land manually often requires a lot of effort and time.

If garlic is grown on an industrial scale, then equipment will certainly be needed. This is about:

• cultivator;
• mini tractor;
• conveyors;
• watering machine;
• garlic harvesting machine.

All of the equipment listed will cost at least 5,000,000 rubles. Not everyone will be able to allocate such a sum to start such a business. Therefore, it is better to limit yourself to available equipment, which in total will cost about 20,000 rubles.

Garlic cultivation technology

Since it was already mentioned above that the best variety of garlic for business is winter, using its example we will consider the technology of cultivation from planting to harvesting and storage.

Winter garlic should be planted 40 days before the first frost - that is, at the end of September or beginning of October.

Medium and large bulbs, previously divided into cloves, are used as planting material. If the bulb has 2-3 cloves, then it is unsuitable for planting.

Advice: Every 3 years, you need to update the seed, since using only cloves to propagate garlic leads to serious diseases that reduce yield.

In the process of selecting planting material, care must be taken to ensure that the top dry scales are not accidentally removed from the clove. If this happens, then the clove must be put aside, since planting it poses a risk of disease.

A mandatory step is soil preparation. The land for planting should preferably be located at a neutral level, be fertile and fertilized in advance. You can’t plant garlic in lowlands, as water will constantly accumulate in it, and on hills, since the winter wind will lead to freezing of the planted sets.

The beds are prepared 1 week before planting. The soil is dug up - the optimal depth is 25 cm. All possible weeds are removed from the site. After which you need to add about 5 kg. humus. This includes 30 grams of superphosphate per 1 sq. m. and 20 g of potassium salt. Fresh manure should never be used at this stage.

The day before planting, you need to add ammonium nitrate– 10 grams per 1 sq. m..

The earth is watered and the bed is covered with film.

You can plant garlic only after measuring the soil temperature. It should have an indicator of 13-15°C at a depth of 5 cm. The beds are leveled and there should be a distance of at least 20 cm between them. The garlic itself is planted at a distance of 10 cm from each other.

Garlic burial depth:

• Large cloves – 8-9 cm.
• Medium cloves – 6-7 cm.

The beds with planted garlic are sprinkled with a 5-centimeter layer of humus, sawdust and peat.

After planting, garlic must be regularly weeded and fed. You can learn how to do this correctly from specialized literature.

The finished harvest can be harvested in mid-August or the first half of September.

Before storing garlic, it must be thoroughly dried and trimmed. The best heads are set aside for next landing, the rest are sent for storage and further sale.

To get more detailed information on growing garlic, we recommend turning to thematic forums or resorting to the help of gardening literature.

Sales market

You can sell grown garlic in the following ways:

• Retail. For example, rent on grocery market trading place and sell directly to the buyer.
• Wholesale. For example, offer products to meat processing plants, pharmaceutical companies, canneries, restaurants, and various catering establishments.

Only the entrepreneur himself decides how to sell garlic. Since everything here depends on the scale of the business.

Profitability, or how much can you earn?

The calculations are quite simple.

From 1 hectare and subject to all agricultural growing technologies, you can get about 13 tons of garlic. Considering its cost is around 50 rubles/1 kg. net profit will be approximately 600,000 rubles. This is an excellent indicator for such a business.

Naturally, with smaller areas the amount will be significantly lower. But still, for a family business, this is a good result. Moreover, together with garlic, you can grow onions, carrots, herbs, vegetables and other crops for subsequent sale.

Why is it important to know yield?

For vegetable growing to be effective, it is necessary to make a good profit from the sale of grown products. The quantity of the harvest depends on:

1. Planning sowing expenses for the purchase of seeds, their processing before planting, soil preparation, purchase of fertilizers for the soil.
2. Degree of complexity of caring for seedlings: labor intensity of the process, water consumption, number of loosening.
3. Planning the timing and organization of garlic harvesting.
4. Further storage of vegetables: selection of area for planting crops, cost of purchasing containers (boxes), transportation, processing.

The competitive advantages of growing garlic are very high. The crop is unpretentious, the cost of seeds is reasonable, no specific skills are required for cultivation, price harvested very high in winter. Guaranteed profitability as a result of garlic cultivation is ensured even on 6 acres.

What does productivity depend on?

The amount of garlic grown is influenced by many factors that must be taken into account at the initial stage of growing vegetables, namely:

1. Condition of the soil and its chemical composition. The most better harvests collected on loamy soil that has neutral or very low acidity. The best way to saturate the beds nutrients, the more garlic can be collected from 1 hectare.
2. Crop rotation. It is recommended to make melons, cabbages, legumes, especially peas, green manure, for example, winter wheat or mustard. It is recommended to plant with caution after early potatoes, which may well deplete the soil.
3. Selecting a site for garlic crops. Well-lit beds that are free from congestion work best. large quantity moisture.
4. Quality of planting material. Before the planting procedure, the heads are disassembled into cloves, calibrated, large ones are selected, if necessary to grow large bulbs. It is important to carry out disinfection, for example, with Totril, which increases the immunity of crops and prevents the abundant growth of weeds.
5. Choice of variety. Most vegetables are obtained from high-yielding species.
6. Correct sowing time. You can start sowing from the beginning of September in the northern regions, in the south - from October, until frost occurs. In spring - as soon as the snow melts, when the soil warms up to +3 degrees.
7. Landing technology. Germination depends on it. The grooves are deepened to 25 cm, the bottom of the holes is covered with sand or ash, the distance between bulbs is 5 cm, between cloves - 10 cm, and between rows - 20 cm.
8. Subsequent care of seedlings: regular watering, fertilizing, pest prevention.
9. Quality and timing of cleaning. The bulb is considered ripe if the tops begin to dry out.

Spring and winter varieties - what is the difference?

All garlic is divided into two types:

• spring;
• winter.

Spring crops are planted in open ground in the spring (from about the beginning of April), when there is no longer any threat of frost. Winter crops are sown in mid-autumn, and large bulbs are harvested by mid-summer.

The yield of spring garlic is much lower, and the heads are smaller than those of crops planted before winter. But according to the shelf life of the bulb spring sowing They are stored longer (up to a year or more), but the shelf life of the winter variety is approximately 4 months.

How much harvest can be harvested in Russia

from 1 hectare

Professionals note that from one hectare of cultivated area you can harvest from 10 to 50 tons of garlic per season. The amount of harvest depends on the selected variety and the conditions created for growing crops. Up to 45 tons of yield per 1 hectare can be obtained, for example, by growing “Benefit” garlic. Approximately 35 tons per 1 hectare are harvested for the Lyubasha variety. When cultivating garlic crops for pen, the yield per 1 hectare ranges from 20 to 25 tons.

The amount of harvest depends on the selected variety and the conditions created for growing crops.

from 1 hundred square meters

With high-quality agricultural technology, one hundred square meters of planting beds yield from 100 to 500 kg of vegetables per planting season. The weight of the harvest also depends on the average weight of the bulbs grown. For example, the “Benefit” variety, each head of which reaches good conditions from 170 to 240 g, from one hundred square meters they collect 350–400 kg. “Ukrainian white” is collected from 1 hundred square meters to 170 kg. The bulbs of “Violet Kharkovsky” are small in weight; they are harvested up to 100 kg per hundred square meters.

The ratio of the amount of planting material and harvested crop

The ratio of garlic yield to seed mass when propagated by cloves is approximately 1 to 4. Using bulbs is more economical. Since the reproduction rate increases by 10 times or more. Using bulbs for sowing, the ratio is already 1 to 50–85.

To obtain a harvest of approximately 8–9 tons per hectare, it is necessary to sow up to 2 tons of medium-sized cloves weighing 5 g each.

The consumption rate of seed material directly depends on the feeding area of ​​one crop. Its size is determined by the main parameters:

• landing scheme;
• seed clove weight;
• soil fertility;
• characteristics of the variety.

For high-quality nutrition, one garlic crop is allocated from 2.5 to 5 square meters. cm of seating space for, from 8 to 10 sq. cm for cloves or single teeth. If the beds are wide enough, planting can be done in an economical checkerboard pattern. When sowing cloves, space 10 cm between holes and 5 cm between bulbs. On an industrial scale, automated seeders are used for planting. For wide-row sowings, 45 cm indentations are made between the rows with a bed width of 60 cm.

When planting bulbs, up to 50 kg of garlic per 1 ha will be required; when using cloves or single cloves, the seeding rate will depend on the size of the heads that are planned to be obtained, and ranges from 300 kg to 2 tons. Spring garlic is sown more densely (10 cm between bulbs, 16 cm between rows). Consequently, the consumption will be higher.

Factors

Allowing you to increase your yield

High yields are influenced by:

1. Selection of beds with loamy soil, neutral acidity, where pumpkin, cabbage, and nightshade vegetables were grown, excluding potatoes, tomatoes, and cucumbers.
2. Soil fertility. Six months before planting, it is necessary to apply organic fertilizers.
3. Accounting for crop rotation. The break between plantings on the same beds is up to 4 years.
4. Treatment of planting material with fungicides to prevent damage from diseases and pests.
5. Sowing strawberries, salad and herbs in neighboring beds.
6. Foliar feeding with complex fertilizers, especially during drought.
7. Carrying out from 3 to 6 waterings per season.
8. Timely weeding and loosening.
9. Removing flower shoots helps increase the size of garlic heads by 30%.

Mulching will help significantly reduce the frequency of necessary weeding.

What can reduce the harvest?

There are conditions under which yields can be significantly reduced. These include:

1. Incorrectly chosen place for crops (lowlands, shaded areas, drafts).
2. Scarcity, density, high acidity of the soil.
3. Incorrect crop rotation. You cannot plant where early potatoes, carrots, garlic, radishes, bulbs, and beets were harvested.
4. Growing tomatoes, peas, beans, onions, cucumbers in neighboring beds, that is, those crops that actively absorb nutrients.
5. Violation of technology and planting patterns. Between holes optimal distance make at least 10 cm, between rows - at least 20 cm.
6. Improper cleaning and storage of vegetables. Garlic must ripen correctly; it is not recommended to harvest the crops in rainy weather; the bulbs must be dried before planting.

Do not forget that in order to obtain a large harvest, professionals recommend taking into account the rules of agricultural technology for growing garlic.

List of initially high-yielding varieties

Initially high-yielding varieties for winter planting include:

1. “Lyubasha” is a winter species, the yield is 350 kg per hectare, 35 tons per 1 hectare. Shelf life – up to 10 months.
2. "Benefit" is considered a winter variety. Its yield ranges from 350 to 450 kg per acre, 35–45 tons per 1 hectare of planting area. Resistant to frost and diseases.

8. “Yubileiny Gribovsky” is a winter variety of medium ripeness. It matures up to 170 kg per acre; more than 17 tons are harvested per hectare.

Among the spring productive varieties garlic worth noting:

1. “Gulliver” is mid-season. They collect up to 100 kg per hundred square meters, approximately 10 tons per 1 hectare.
2. "Ukrainian white". Garlic is considered a universal variety. They harvest up to 16 tons per hectare, which is approximately 160 kg per acre.
3. “Sail” is characterized by medium ripeness. They collect approximately 96 kg from 1 hectare, from 1 hectare - 9.6 tons.
4. "Elenovsky". This variety is considered universal and mid-season. On one hundred square meters it grows up to 370 kg, 37 tons are collected from 1 hectare. Can be stored for 2 years.
5. “Aleisky” is a variety zoned for Western Siberia. Mid-season. Garlic is resistant to bacterial rot and fusarium. They collect 80 kg per hundred square meters, from 1 hectare - up to 8 tons.

It is necessary to wisely select the variety that is preferable in terms of yield, depending on the zoning and climatic conditions of the area. For example, in the south and in the Moscow region it is preferable to cultivate the following varieties: “Sofievsky”, “Lyubasha”, “Ukrainian White”, “Spas”. For central Russia and more northern regions, the following varieties are used: “Benefit”, “Aleysky”, “Replicant”, “Elenovsky”, “Gulliver”.

Dependence of profitability on yield

Profitability is one of the main indicators of business performance. In this case, it shows how much net profit can be obtained from each ruble invested in growing garlic. To calculate profitability, it is necessary to divide the profit received from the sale of vegetable crops by the costs spent on growing it.

The larger the harvest, less costs for the purchase of seed, soil treatment, fertilizing, watering, cleaning and storage, the higher the profitability will be.

The yield value is considered a quality indicator in vegetable growing. When growing garlic, it is important to wisely select a crop variety suitable for certain climatic conditions, and take into account agricultural techniques for planting, growing, and harvesting. Only in this case can you significantly reduce costs, get greater profits from sales, and increase profitability in the garlic business.

One of them is garlic. And it is useful not only for its dietary properties, but also for its benefits, because you can make money by growing this crop. It’s not for nothing that many gardeners love it so much in open ground; it doesn’t require any special knowledge; for this vegetable you don’t have to build greenhouses and greenhouses, and you need very little storage space.

A bountiful harvest

First of all, let's figure out what the yield of garlic is from 1 hundred square meters. With proper care, you can harvest up to 150 kg of this vegetable, but only 10 kg will have to be planted. Productivity also depends on planting time. Winter garlic gives the greatest weight gain due to a longer growing season. But a vegetable planted in the spring is better stored, its cloves are denser and more aromatic.

Of course, you always want to get the maximum garlic yield per 1 acre, but climate plays an important role here. If the winter is cold, some of the plants may simply not survive it, and in the spring you will not get seedlings, but a loss of seed material. Before planting, make sure the climate in your area is suitable for this crop.

Soil preparation

Garlic prefers good light and does not tolerate acidic soils, preferring neutrals. In addition, it conflicts with legumes, which must be taken into account when choosing a growing location. As for fertilizers, before planting it will be useful to add a little complex mineral fertilizing or compost.

One of the reasons that the yield of garlic per acre is low is improper soil preparation. Thin arrows cannot break through solid soil, so it is very important to dig it up before planting. Garlic cloves are small, and it is enough to cultivate the soil to a depth of up to 8 cm. Next, immediately before planting, the surface must be carefully leveled with a rake and sprinkled generously river sand(layer about 4 cm).

Sowing

So, in order to get the maximum yield of garlic per 1 sq.m., it is better to use winter varieties, but if you are expecting winter frosts below 30, it is more profitable to take spring ones (those that are planted in the spring). Before sowing, the seeds must be treated with an ash solution (about 400 grams of ash per 2 liters of water) for one to two hours to protect the plants from diseases. Only dense cloves that have no damage to the skin can be used as seed material.

If you are using winter garlic, planting and care in open ground begin in September or October, so that the cloves have time to take root before frost. Spring varieties are planted in early spring, as soon as the temperature reaches 5 degrees. Sowing is very simple: grooves are made in the prepared bed in increments of 20 cm, and the cloves are pressed into these grooves at a distance of 10-15 cm from each other, so that they are completely hidden in the soil. There is an opinion that garlic should be planted to a depth of 20 cm, but this is of no use: once rooted, the plant itself will gradually begin to go down. After planting, the soil must be leveled with a rake.

In the case of winter crops, grass seeds, for example rapeseed, can be planted along with garlic. Its roots will not allow the soil to compact, and the green mass will become additional shelter for the winter. In addition, before frosts, winter crops must be securely covered with mulch; potato and tomato tops are suitable here. When planting in spring, such measures are not required.

First shoots

As soon as the snow melts, winter garlic must be freed from mulch. Part of it can be left - it will not allow weeds to break through, and over time it will become fertilizer. If upper layer the earth has compacted into a crust; it needs to be loosened, but very carefully. Dry soil must be watered.

Regardless of the time of planting, garlic in the spring, when the temperature has not yet risen above 7 degrees, is already beginning to grow actively. When the first arrows appear, you can immediately apply mineral fertilizer: 1 tablespoon of urea per 10 liters of water. It is necessary to water carefully, at the root, so that the solution does not get on the greens, otherwise burns may remain. In addition to fertilizing, it will be useful to loosen the soil and, of course, weed out the first weeds.

Basic care

Garlic is an unpretentious crop, especially if it is planted in good soil before winter. It is necessary to monitor mainly soil moisture, and only three feedings are required. The first, as described above, is applied in early spring. After two weeks, you can feed the plants with nitroamophoska (2 tablespoons per 10 liters of water) or add a little humus if you did not add it before planting. For the winter variety, this is enough, but the spring variety needs to be watered again with fertilizer (either organic or phosphorus-potassium).

Often the choice arises: what to feed garlic with - manure or mineral fertilizer? Both should be used with caution. Organic matter can cause soil compaction and the appearance of various diseases, and chemical fertilizers easily lead to an “overdose” of one or another element. Therefore, the main thing is not to overdo it, but to use all types of fertilizing, but in moderation.

To increase the average yield of garlic, it is very important to remove the flower shoots as early as possible. If this is not done, the plants will spend a lot of energy on flowering and producing seeds, and the bulbs will turn out small.

Treatment and protection

Such procedures can only be carried out during the period active growth and under no circumstances in the sun. For better use complex mineral fertilizers containing microelements.

Helpful neighborhood

Not only is garlic not eaten by insects, but it also repels them, so it can be planted with other plants. Such proximity can be very useful. So, garlic in a bed with strawberries or cabbage will help get rid of snails and caterpillars, and roses, thanks to such a partner, will be protected from spotting. You can even plant this wonderful vegetable on shrubs! With such combined cultivation, the problem of how to feed garlic will also disappear, since each plant takes different elements from the soil, preventing oversaturation.

It is very useful to plant a “garden healer” together with green crops such as lettuce or dill. The main thing is to ensure that garlic does not grow in one place for several years in a row, otherwise good harvest you can't wait.
