Default Garlic update

Dunganski and Ivan garlic update.


So far things are going well. Both variety's are about 5-6 inches above the straw mulch and the straw mulch is about 5 inches deep.


I am going to fertilize in about 5 days or so. Im going to use a Garden tone and blood meal mix and work it into the soil around the bulbs. Garden tone is 3-4-4 and the blood meal im using is a 12-0-0.



When I put the straw mulch back im going to reduce the amount so that its about 3-4 inches deep. I wont need much for weed suppression.



Im pretty excited springs almost here. I am going to expand my garden more this year by about 560 square feet. This will give me one more row for tomatoes .
