1. Storage environment: Ensure that the storage environment is relatively dry, cool, and well ventilated. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight and store garlic in the dark.
2. Storage location: Place garlic in a well ventilated container, such as a basket or mesh bag, and maintain appropriate spacing to avoid contact with each other. You can choose materials with breathability, such as paper bags or bamboo baskets.
3. Avoid dampness: Store garlic in a dry environment and avoid contact with water. If garlic is damp, it should be dried in a timely manner before storage.
4. Regular inspection: Regularly inspect the stored garlic. If any sprouting garlic cloves are found, they should be promptly removed and consumed. This can prevent sprouted garlic from affecting other non sprouted garlic.
