My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Garlic Fertilizer

4 years ago

Can anyone tell me what type of fertilizer is best for my Hard Neck variety in Upstate NY? They are planted in a Cedar Raised bed (8 x 12). I have used fish fertilizer spray in the past years and I was wondering if Urea might be better to produce larger bulbs in July when I harvest them. Thank you for any suggestions!

    Like onions, garlic is a heavy user of nitrogen. In spring, they should be side dressed with blood meal or other high N source every 3-4 weeks until harvest.
