Description:

Garlic is an annual that can grow 2 feet high or more.

The Garlic plant have 6-12 long, narrow and flat like grass leaves. The leaves of garlic are erect, narrow, flat and bladelike, with a crease down the middle. The most important part of this plant for medicinal purposes is the bulb (subterranean reserve structure derived from a leaf).

The bulb consists of numerous bulblets, known as ‘cloves’ held between the papery membrane and enclosed within a whitish skin as a sac. Each bulb is made up of 4 to 20 cloves, and each clove weighs about 1 gram and with at least one flat side.

The flowers rise from a single central stem direct from the bulb and are white in color.

Garlic prefers a sunny position in a moist, light, well-drained soil with a pH of 4.5 to 8.3. It can tolerate periods without rain, but best results come from plants that receive regular watering. The site selected for planting garlic must have excellent drainage and adequate sunlight.

Planting & Cultivation:

Garlic never produces fertile seeds and must be propagated by dividing the bulbs into individual cloves carefully and planting each clove as a set. It is  grown as an annual and planted from September through February.

Condition the soil with lots of organic matter, bone meal etc one or two weeks before planting. Add more sand if the soil is clayish. Individual Cloves can be planted 2-3 inches deep with their noses just below the soil surface and 4-6 inches apart. Damaged cloves should not be planted to avoid diseases or pests.

Harvesting and Preparing for the Market:

Harvest is usually sometime from mid-July through August, about nine months after planting depending upon conditions and the type of garlic. Bulbs should be dug-up when 2-3 leaves turn brown.  Be careful not to bruise or injure the bulbs, dig carefully beside the plant and then underneath it with a spading fork to loosen the plant, lift the bulb up and gently remove excess dirt.

Garlic with the entire bulb and stalk, must be well dried and cured after harvest, before being stored. Tie the garlic stalks together about a dozen in a bundle, and hang them up to be dried for two to three weeks in an airy well-ventilated location not under direct sunlight. Once dry, the roots should be trimmed off and the stalk removed about an inch from the head. Bulbs store best with good air circulation on all sides. Bulbs to be saved for later planting can be stored in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 8 months. Fresh garlic is best stored in an open container in a cool, dark place. Bulbs should be able to keep for eight weeks at a time – whereas if you break the cloves off individually, they will begin to dry after about three days

Yield:

One acre yields from 7.2 to 8.5 tons in average.
