LAND

The next step goes by the choice of land for cultivation. Garlic likes sandy soils and light, with good drainage and organic fertilizers and mineral. The garlic cloves are generally planted between October and November, because garlic requires the low temperatures of the short days of Winter to encourage the development of roots.

The garlic has a root system relatively shallow, just very sensitive to weather conditions, be it dry or wet. In this case the amount of water to apply will always depend on the type of soil, as the scarcity or excess of water can cause the bulbs too small.
