Winter garlic (winter)
The benefits of winter garlic:
- crop ripens earlier than spring varieties;
- winter varieties have a higher germination rate and are less demanding on growing conditions;
- teeth are larger, but fewer in number;
- The skin of the clove is thinner, making it easier to remove, which is very important if you need to peel a large number of cloves;
- winter garlic, unlike spring garlic, propagates not only with cloves, but also with aerial bulbous bulbs growing on peduncles;
- winter varieties give arrows, which is not the case with spring varieties. Garlic arrows are very popular among lovers of unusual cuisine. Skillful housewives prepare many delicious dishes from them.
