You have great results with garlic. Do you buy garlic sets?

No boat, back in the suds.

Nope. I save 15 or so of the largest bulbs when I harvest, and then in October break them up and plant the cloves. Perpetual recycling. Got these from my mom's garden, who had gotten them from a friend.
Remind me when I harvest and I will put some aside for you to start your plot.

I start mine in January, not in the traditional peat pots but in large flower pots so they don't get root bound, fill the pot only half full so you can keep adding "dirt" it will encourage the plant to grow extra roots and keep tam from getting "leggy", I have a couple of cheap plastic green houses I bought at job lots and raise them in the "fish room ( I have multiple aquariums in my house)" upstairs I use grow lights on a timer, mine are a foot tall with blossoms as I type this..

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Thanks Bry. I have not had good luck with garlic.
