Abstract Garlic storage plays back an important role in the formation of price policy and provides consumers with quality products throughout the year. The main goal of this work was to study the varietal characteristics of bearing capacity of hardneeck and softneeck and spring garlic. The research was carried out by the laboratories of the vegetable growing department of the Uman National University of Horticulture (Uman) during 2018–2022 with hot forms of garlic and in 2020–2022 with hardneeck and softneeck and spring subspecies. Selection and local forms of garlic were used for the research. As a result of the conducted research, it was found that the a larger share of the weight loss of the garlic bulb is natural loss due to respiration. In spring garlic, this indicator was 1.90 %, in winter shooting and non-shooting 25.90 and 10.49 %, respectively, according to the subspecies. When comparing subspecies of hardneeck and softneeck garlic, preference is given to softneeck garlic because the samples of this subspecies had a significantly smaller proportion of bulbs affected by diseases, withered and sprouted. But the bright subspecies of garlic performed best, where minimal losses were noted, in the range of 0.14–0.26 % relative to other factors. The results showed that the accumulation of mass loss increases with the increase in the storage period. The subspecies of garlic had a significant effect on the losses, where the total loss of bulb mass in the hardneeck was 35.36 %, and in the softneeck – 16.24 % during 270 days of storage. In both subspecies, the largest share of mass loss was due to natural losses – 25.9 and 10.49 %, respectively, for the hardneeck and softneeck subspecies. In spring garlic, minimal losses were noted for a period of 360 days – an average of 2.50 %, where the lion's share of 1.90 % was natural losses. Varieties and samples were selected according to the "lightness" feature: Allium sativum L. subsp. Sagittatum: Dzhovanna, Apollon, Sofіivs'kyi and A.s.40/16; Allium sativum L. subsp. Vulgare (winter): A.s.33/16, A.s.43/17 and A.s.44/17; Allium sativum L. subsp. Vulgare(spring): A.s.51/17, A.s.56/17 and A.s.57/17. Selected samples can be used in the further selection process.
