Fertilizing Garlic

14 years ago

Some of my Garlic are getting around 6"+ tall now. On a couple of them, the lowest leaves are starting to be more lime than the deep green at the top of the plants. What should I side-dress them with? I only have Bloodmeal and Bonemeal. I don't have any horse manure, and my compost in the compost tumbler isn't fully cooked yet. It's still more of a slimy substance instead of a soil.

The week after this, some forecasts are giving us temps in the upper 60's, or even reaching 70 once or twice for highs and lots of sun. I think I might get a lot of growth from that.
