Hey Community Gardeners, Is this beautiful weather making you want to get out in your garden? Well, why not plant some garlic!
Garlic is a great crop to plant, it is easy to grow, & over winter, you know that you have something already ready growing for Spring!
1) Get fresh & healthy looking garlic bulbs (from a farmer, not the grocer!)
2) Separate garlic into cloves, be careful not to break the skin.
3) Plant each clove in the ground, twice as deep as it is big, place the bottom of the clove down. Leave about 6-8" between each clove.
4) Cover with rich soil, and a thick layer of mulch (straw, leaves) to keep it warm over winter.
