I plant on Columbus Day.
This time mulch will be hemlock noodles.
I've planted in spring too.

The main thing is,
plant the cloves in the dirt.
Right side up.
To make it harder use the phone.

Repeat that last line please??

Never planted any before but looking into it. Do y'all like hard neck or soft neck best and why? Also, if planted in mid Oct when will it be ready to harvest? Thinking of using one of my tomato beds but I would need to get the garlic out of there by mid April or May at the latest.

Hard neck here. No place around here even offers soft neck seed ... Plant in October, harvest in July. Guessing that mid April or May would not be long enough, even in AR

Wonderful Wife has some Garlic she bought at a local farmers market and has stored it in a glass jar in the kitchen. Can we use that for planting for next year?

Thanks!

When I used to help my grandpa plant garlic,, he went big..
Rows were around 30 feet long and he had around 20-25 rows.
He ate a few cloves every day and sold some.
He would put it in the microwave with a paper towel..
The paper towel kept the garlic from producing an arc

Why did he eat the cloves? Mosquito repellent?

A friend carried cloves in the truck "in case"
he got pulled over.
He did, the cop smelled garlic and beer,
and supposedly beat him up.
Some years later same guy died in
dui fleeing crash.

Know when to stop driving folks.

I planted last year for the first time. Followed internet instructions. Planted mid to end of October (Wisconsin climate). Let them grow till the scapes grew. Cut the scapes off (and ate them). Once the scapes are cut, bulbing will start from what I was told. Let them go for 2 maybe three weeks after scapes were cut and dug the dirt around the plant to check. I let them go a little longer and checked again and started harvesting.

He ate garlic daily to boost his health…
Has good benefits for your heart and cardiovascular system.
He passed away at 91 years old.
Pretty good run

I eat a raw clove every day now that I grow it. Much of the stuff in the store comes from over seas. Read labels before you buy.
