The scheme of foliar application of onion and garlic

There are some different types of onions in the production, but the leader in sown areas is bulb onion or common onion. With a yield of 1 ton of products it takes 3 - 4 kg of N, 1,2 - 1,7 kg of P2O5 and 3 - 4,5 kg of K2O. Since sulfur is needed for the formation of aromatic substances, it is necessary to use sulfur-containing forms of fertilizers. The culture forms a weak root system, and therefore requires fertile soils, but does not take a high concentration of nutrients in the soil solution. The same applies to garlic. Both crops can be grown as winter and spring. Sowing material is grown from the seed in the first year. Modern varieties can be grown as a one-year culture directly from the seeds. Garlic in industrial plantings almost has not been grown until recently. By May 2017 there is a statistical data of growing it on the area over 1000 hectares. Feeding is best done in the period from the formation of two or three leaves until the formation of the bulb. Due to the presence of wax silt on the leaves of these cultures, it is preferable to make foliar nutrition with a tank mix with PPP containing adherents and surfactant.
