What control measures should be taken when pathological changes occur in garlic scapes during storage?
Abnormal changes of the scape tip 1. Browning of the scape tip (1) Symptoms The scape tip changes from yellow-green to yellow-brown or dark brown, dehydrates and shrinks into a thin flake-like form, is prone to decay, and is easily infected by mold, losing its toughness; dry-affected ones break easily, and wet-affected ones rot easily and are infected by mold. (2) Causes The tissues of the scape tip undergo physiological aging and death, and lose water and shrink. High temperature and high oxygen promote browning, and high humidity aggravates the degree of browning. (3) Control Harvest at the proper time, and strictly prevent high temperature, air-drying, or smothering during harvest and transport.

Proper drought and disease prevention management during the garlic scape development period
The garlic scape development period is the reproductive growth stage of garlic, mainly including the flower bud differentiation stage and the scape elongation stage. The differentiation of flower buds and bulbils is a critical period in garlic growth and development, and smooth differentiation helps increase yield. The scape elongation stage refers to the period from when the scape begins to elongate until the scape is harvested after the tail-flicking stage, about 30 days. During the garlic scape development period, flower bud differentiation requires temperatures below 10°C; the scape elongation stage requires an optimal temperature of 12°C-18°C. If the temperature is too low, the scape elongates slowly, affecting yield; if the temperature is too high, the scape elongates quickly, the fiber content increases, and quality deteriorates.

What are the methods for preserving garlic bulbs? Practical storage tips to teach you a few tricks
Garlic bulbs do not store well. Even in a dry, ventilated environment, after 100 days of storage they will sprout, shrivel and become moldy, affecting the planting quality for the following year. Therefore, mastering the storage techniques for garlic after harvest is extremely important. Here four garlic bulb storage and preservation techniques are specially introduced: 1. Hanging storage method. After harvest, the fresh garlic bulbs are first sun-dried for 2-3 days; when the leaves become soft, tie the garlic into bunches of 8-10 bulbs each, then hang them neatly under a shade shed or eaves to air-dry naturally. During the hanging storage period, exposure to the sun should be avoided in summer and autumn, and in winter the garlic bulbs should be moved into a ventilated room for storage to avoid moisture and freezing.

The Clever Uses of Garlic in Fruit Production
According to experiments, using garlic as a pollution-free pesticide on fruit trees has many wonderful effects. 1. Promoting sprouting. Coating grape buds in plastic greenhouses with garlic juice can make them sprout 7-10 days earlier; coating the cut ends of grape branches can prevent the cut ends from drying out and can promote the buds below the wound to sprout evenly. 2. Preventing and treating rot. After apple trees, pear trees, etc. suffer from rot disease, scrape the diseased scar clean, down to the xylem. At the same time, cut the healthy bark around the diseased scar into a smooth 60-degree slope, then use a garlic clove to directly coat
