Hi
I have planted some elephant and other garlic in pots of compost, having tried unsuccessfully in the ground. My question is whether I need to use fertiliser and if so which one would you use? I know you can buy specific garlic fertiliser but not sure if its necessary or can you can use a general one which is high in nitrogen.
Also - would you use the same fertiliser for your onions!
thank you

They tend to spring up a bit so every day I push them down.
It will be interested to see their overall progress.
