What a wealth of info you are! We are thinking about starting our first garden next year. I had never actually seen a garlic plant coming out of the ground before. What a wealth of info you are!

I had actually thought of growing garlic a number of times but it seemed very mysterious and difficult. This is the best and most easily understood tutorial on garlic I have read! I may just try it although I don't have a lot of space is the other thing and have a hard time giving up as much gardening space as we would need for how much garlic we eat! What a great post!

They're just so darned useful, aren't they? And the work required to store them is so minimal compared with tomatoes or other stuff that you have to can. Just planted mine yesterday!

I remember going to the Garlic Festival in Gilroy, California as a teenager, where among other things, I ate garlic ice cream! My heart thrills as well at the sight of garlic growing in my garden. The braids I've made and hung in my kitchen give me a little thrill every time I look at them. Friends swoon when they receive a bottle of olive oil with garlic cloves suspended throughout....tied in raffia. And, my "Garlic, Ginger, Honey Throat Elixir" is wonderful for chasing away a nasty sore throat. There are few things more gratifying then harvesting the work of the earth...the sun, the soil and your own two hands! And I don't think you've lived until you've had some roasted, mellow garlic spread on a crusty baguette! I hope your readers can try growing some of their own garlic, it's so worth it! Love that Kiera is standing sentinel over the whole process! When I cook raw for the dogs, guess what goes in? Yep, garlic. Great tutorial by the way! I love garlic with a passion!

I grow chives just for the pretty purple flowers too, not for the harvest, so there is no accounting for why I grow some things either! PS.
