🧄 Step-by-Step process of Growing Garlic :

Garlic grows best in cool weather.
2️⃣ Choosing the Container
Depth: Minimum 8–10 inches
Width: Any size (round/rectangular grow bag or pot)
Drainage holes: Must (very important).
3️⃣ Soil / Potting Mix
Use a loose, well-draining mix:
Garden soil – 40%
Compost / vermicompost – 30%
sand – 30%
👉 Garlic hates water-logged soil.

Choose big, healthy cloves
Use local garlic
Do not peel the cloves
Separate cloves just before planting.
5️⃣ Planting Method
Make holes 1.5–2 inches deep
Place clove pointed side up
Spacing: 4–5 inches between cloves
Cover lightly with soil.
6️⃣ Watering
Water immediately after planting
Keep soil slightly moist, not wet
Overwatering can cause rotting.
7️⃣ Sunlight
Needs 5–6 hours of direct sunlight daily
Place container in a sunny spot.
8️⃣ Fertilizer Schedule
After 25–30 days:
Add vermicompost or
Liquid compost / jeevamrutham every 15 days
Stop heavy feeding after bulb formation starts
9️⃣ Care & Maintenance
Remove weeds if any
Avoid excess nitrogen (too many leaves, small bulbs)
Reduce watering when leaves start turning yellow.
🔟 Harvesting Garlic
Ready in 120–150 days
Signs:

Leaves fall slightly
Uproot gently
Dry (cure) in shade for 7–10 days
