fertilizer for garlic and onions

Solent Wight is best planted out January / February in well drained soil. If the soil is very wet or acidic (ph less than 6.5) it won't grow very well. Add plenty of well rotted manure and a little fertilzer such as Growmore or Fish, Blood & Bone. If the tops start to yellow a little in spring then give them a liquid feed or two. Don't plant them too close as they are prone to getting rust. My soil tends to be too wet early on in the year so I plant them in pots using multi-purpose compost then plant them out in March. They come ready in July and if dried properly keep for ages. I find Solent Wight is the best garlic to grow on my plot with our climate. Hope that helps.
