Timely topdressing: when the seedlings are about 10-15 cm tall and have grown 3-5 new leaves, begin topdressing. After that, topdress once every 15-20 days, and after 3-5 consecutive applications, they can be harvested. Each time, apply per mu 40-50 kg of decomposed rotted peanut bran, 8-10 kg of Huolihsu biological bacterial fertilizer, and 20-30 kg of amino acid organic compound fertilizer, dilute with 100 times clear water, and evenly sprinkle it onto the soil around the roots of the garlic plants.
Foliar topdressing: during the growth and development period of autumn garlic, it is necessary to spray the leaves once every 7-10 days with a mixture of 0.1% magnesium sulfate, 0.2% urea, 0.3% monopotassium phosphate, 300x calcium nitrate, 1000x plant high-efficiency balanced nutrient solution, and 1000x natural brassin, spraying continuously 8-10 times, evenly wetting all stems and leaves, until water droplets begin to drip down.
