The location of the cloves influences the growth and development of the plants, as well as the for-mation of the bulb mass. Peripheral garlic cloves are distinguished by higher quality over internal ones (the mass ratio is within 60 : 40%). Our studies show that in obtaining high yields of non-clotting garlic, the location of the clove in the bulb is of decisive importance. Studies also found that the use of cloves of different locations without mass calibration for planting, leads to different times of ripening of the bulbs, which complicates the process of harvesting and leads to a deterioration in the quality of garlic. Sorting, with the aim of using similarly ground garlic cloves for planting, ensures the uniform development of the plants, simultaneous of ripening of the bulbs and obtaining better quality products.
