Don't throw the garlic in the house
When i returned home last friday, i saw my mother's bouquet full of garlic with green oil, and the green was so high that it made me sick. I asked her when she was growing, and she smiled, and she said, "no, no, no! It's the lumbered garlic in the kitchen, throwing it, burying it in the dirt, pouring water, eating fresh garlic in a week."
I was shocked on the spot -- the guacamole i threw away was so valuable
Today we'll share this zero-cost, super-simplified garlic planting, and we'll be able to eat our own fresh garlic in seven days
- can you eat that? Let's get this straight
Before teaching you how to grow garlic, answer a question that many people have to ask: can you eat garlic when it's sprouts
The answer is: it's perfectly available and it's probably better nourished
Sprouts of garlic don't produce toxic substances like potatoes, so they can eat. It was found that in three-to-five days of garlic, the levels of garlic were about 20 per cent higher than in the absence of the gestation, and that the resistance to oxidation was increased. There may also be a slight increase in the antioxidation component of garlic, such as vitamin c and selenium, during the gestation。
It should be noted, however, that if garlic is accompanied by decomposition, cartilage, softness, odor, etc., it cannot be eaten, indicating that it has deteriorated and that harmful substances such as aflatoxin may be produced and need to be completely discarded。
So, for those garlic that are only budding and not spoiled, rather than allowing it to continue drying up, then bury it in the earth and plant fresh garlic to eat. That's what it takes
Ii. Turn the luminous garlic into garlic. It's only four steps away
It's so simple, even a plant killer like me has succeeded once。
First step: preparatory work
Materials:
Sprung garlic
A flower basin or container (water drain at the bottom)
Nutritional or general lands
Clean water
It has been said that the immersion of the garlic petals with warm water for about 12 hours allows the garlic to absorb the moisture better and to promote the growth of the bud. But my experience is that it's all right if you don't have the garlic that's sprouts, and you can live in it。
Step 2: handle garlic
Make garlic a single garlic, keep the skin. The skin protects garlic and prevents pests。
Small trick: if you want garlic to grow faster, you can cut off a little bit of the tube on the bottom of the garlic petals, or you can remove the skin of the garlic, which makes it easier to root。
In addition, experienced vegetable farmers leave garlic petals in the sun for two to three days before planting, so that the valves can be loosed, more easily separated, pre-emerged and better fed。
Step 3: buried
Put the treated garlic roots down, sprouts up, into the earth. The garlic is not too close to each other, leaving two to three centimetres of space for each garlic seedling。
The depth of the burial is about two thirds of the garlic height, and just a little soil on the top. Not too deep, otherwise the bud won't grow out。
Step 4: water conservation
Once buried, water is poured to keep the soil wet. It is then observed daily that it is sufficient to keep the soil micro-humid and not to accumulate water, or the garlic can rot。
Put the flower pot in a place where there's plenty of sunlight and good ventilation. Garlic light, the more light shines, the stronger it grows. Winter can be placed on the southward window table。
In about three days, you'll see green buds coming out of the earth; on the seventh day, garlic can grow to 15-20 centimeters and harvest
Iii. “recovery” of garlic seed
There's talk about how to harvest, how to eat, and how to eat。
Harvest methods
When the garlic is 15-20 cm high, it can be harvested. Scissors cut from 2-3 cm above the root, leaving the root to continue growing。
Goodly nourished can harvest two to three. Every time you've done this, you can get a little bit of fertilizer (if you don't have rice), you can grow a new one in a week or two。
The good taste of garlic
Fresh garlic is much more gentle than garlic, and there's no garlic spicy, and there's a taste of sweet and fresh. Recommended several eating methods:
Garlic fried eggs - the simplest of the classic combinations, the slices of garlic, the spread of eggs, the burning of hot boilers together, and the perfect smell。
Garlic seedlings return to the boiler - when the roasting boils to the inflammation of the stench, the fragrance of the fragrance flows into the sky。
Garlic scavengers — scavengers cut thins, scavengers scavengered and fragranced with the fat of the scab。
Garlic tofu - tofu is fried tones on two sides, garlic is fried, a spoon is pumped, and the food machine is eaten。
Nutritional value
Their own garlic seedlings are also of high nutritional value. Garlic is rich in dietary fibres and chlorophyll, and vitamin c is higher than garlic. I'll put one in the cooking. It'll be colored and fragranced
Iv. You can grow without soil
If there's no flower pots and no earth in the house, there's a simpler way to do it — with garlic。
Water preparation steps:
Find a plate or bowl with a little rock or pebble on the bottom
Put the sprout of garlic in it
One third of the bottom of the garlic
It's on a sun-rich window table, changing water every 2-3 days
The benefits of hydroponics are clean sanitation, green viewing on kitchen windows, and particularly beautiful green oil. And it's a good natural education to observe the growth process of the root system, especially for children。
Note: while the garlic seed from hydroponic is growing faster, the nutrients are less than that from earthbreed, the garlic will run out of nutrients after the harvest of one or two strokes and need fresh garlic。
V. Little knowledge of garlic
By the way, i'd like to give you some cold knowledge of garlic:
1. Why is garlic sprouts
Garlic occurs naturally when suitable temperatures (15-20°c) and humidity are encountered during storage. It's a normal biological phenomenon of plants, just like the potato germinates. The difference is that potato sprouts produce toxins, while garlic sprouts simply transform their nutrition into seedlings。
2. How to slow down the growth of garlic
If you want to keep garlic fresh, you can put it in the cool dryer (15-20°c) or put it in the air vents in an air-breathing bag. Refrigerator refrigeration (about 4°c) can also slow the growth of the bud。
3. What does a sprout of garlic fit
If you don't want to grow garlic, you can eat it with a bud. It's better for stew, pickle or garlic than fresh garlic. If excessive growth leads to garlic-drying, it is recommended that priority be given to cooking rather than raw food, and high heat can improve taste。
Ever since i learned the trick of turning it into a treasure, the garlic in my kitchen has never been thrown away. As soon as it starts to sprouts, i'll bury it in the flowerpot on the balcony and have fresh garlic in a week。
Not only are they safe and unpest, but they also taste a lot more dim than supermarkets. It's really good to go to the balcony and cut some garlic before cooking
Mom's right: "it's not junk, it's god who's got you the seeds. All you have to do is give it a little dirt, a little water, and it'll give you a nice, fresh meal."
Pick up the sprouts of garlic in the kitchen, bury it in the ground and eat fresh garlic in seven days
