Garlic (大蒜) is one of the most common spices of the kitchen, and the good news is that growing garlic indoors is simple. Garlic can be easily grown at home from individual cloves (瓣), which is the most commonly used form of cultivating garlic than growing garlic from seeds. Here are some useful tips on growing garlic indoors.

Autumn is the best time to plant garlic. Garlic requires enough time to develop strong roots. In warmer climate, it can be delayed to late winter or early spring.

Ensure the container used to grow garlic is large enough for the roots to have enough space to grow. The larger the size of the container, the healthier and bigger the garlic bulbs (鱗莖) will be. The container should also have holes at the bottom so that the water can drain (流走) out easily.

Sow each clove vertically into the soil at a depth of one inch. Ensure that the blunt end (平端) is facing downward. In case of container gardening, the number of cloves to be sowed in each container depends on the size of the container. In case you are planning to sow more than one clove in each container, make sure that each clove is at least 5 inches apart from others.

For the best growth of the garlic plant, choose a sunny spot where there is enough air circulation (流通). This will aid evaporation (蒸發(fā)) of too much amount of water and prevent the soil from becoming too damp in case too much watering does occur. Window sill (窗臺) is a good place to put your container of garlic plant.

Once the clove has been sowed, cover the soil with a layer of mulch (覆蓋物) to protect the roots from extreme cold. Provide fertilizer at the correct time in right amounts, and proper watering. Once the garlic tips start appearing in the spring season, pull back the layer of mulch. Feed the plants once or twice every month with fertilizer.

Dear Mr Price,

Our first waitress,Janet,was polite and helpful.She gave us free drinks for waiting not long.Our food also came quickly and looked fresh and nice.When my wife had eaten most of her meal,she found a dead cockroach (蟑螂) in the vegetables,she was shocked and waned to leave.At first,the waitress told us it was a piece of garlic(大蒜).When we told her that garlic did not have legs,she apologized and took the food away.

　　We asked for the bill,expecting not to pay for my wife's meal.Nobody came.After 15 minutes,I asked to see the manager.The head waiter told us that you were on holiday.I complained again about the horrible cockroach. He told me Janet had finished working.He didn't believe my story and gave me bill for three meals.I argued with him but was forced to pay.

The waitress,Janet,was always friendly,but I would like an apology from your impolite head waiter and a full refund for our meals which cost $68.Until then,I will not eat at your restaurant or recommend it to anyone.

[1] If you don’t have good nutrition(營養(yǎng)), you’re missing a key weapon against colds. Basics include vegetables and nuts .The following are five surprising foods that can improve immunity(免疫力).

[2] Yogurt. Yogurt, a milk product, contains probiotics(益生菌). These probiotics change the immune system and help reduce the severity of colds. Choose the yogurt that contains live and active probiotics to make sure you’re getting the benefits of the yogurt.

[3] Green tea. A cup of green tea can help cure a sore throat and lift spirits. Green tea can help prevent damage in the body. It may also fight against colds.

[4] Garlic(大蒜). Garlic has received widespread attention for its possibility of disease-prevention and immune-improving functions. In a study, researchers found that people who               regularly were two-thirds less likely to catch a cold. The best way to get garlic’s benefits is eating it without cooking. 

[5] Orange-fleshed (有橙色的果肉的) vegetables. Pumpkins, sweet potatoes, and other orange-fleshed vegetables are high in beta carotene (胡蘿卜素)，which the body uses to make Vitamin A. A diet low in beta carotene can reduce immunity, so eating vegetables is a great way to ensure your body has the nutrients it needs. Vitamin A is also important in keeping skin healthy.

 [6] Oysters(牡蠣). Oysters are definitely not the first thing that comes to mind when a cold or other illness attacks you, but they are a great source of zinc (Zn). Zinc is important in the development of white blood cells. It’s best to get zinc from a balanced diet. In a addition to oysters, beef and chicken are good sources.
