Seed Material<br />

For ‘seed’ material, the bulbs should be severed from the foliage leaving 3.8 – 5 cm from the base of<br />

the bulb. Replant bulbs soon after harvesting; do not keep bulbs longer than five to seven days. Since<br />

1 kg of planting material will plant approximately 1.43 m 2 , the farmer can calculate the required<br />

planting material for his vacant beds and therefore should leave enough planting material for the next<br />

crop.<br />
