How to apply foliar fertilizer when growing garlic? Please give guidance


    Foliar fertilization allows nutrients to enter the plant body through the leaves and directly participate in the plant's metabolic processes and the synthesis of organic matter. Its effect is faster than soil fertilization, and it is an economical and reasonable fertilization technique. After garlic is treated with garlic growth promoter, the enzyme activity in the roots, stems and leaves of garlic seedlings can increase by 15%-31%, and the yield can increase by 12%-14%. To spray garlic growth promoter on the leaves, dilute it with clean water, using about 125-150g of the original solution per 667 sq m each time, adding 50L of water. The spraying periods can be once each during the garlic growing period (March), the garlic scape differentiation stage, the bulb growth stage, and 2-3 days after harvesting the garlic scapes. When spraying, both the front and back of the leaves should be sprayed. It is best to spray after 4 p.m., and the weather should be sunny when spraying. If it rains within 24 hours after spraying, spray once again.
