This year is the first time I have ever grown garlic and I only planted 12 cloves in a medium size pot. I knew that when harvest time came around I would regret that I didn't plant more, but I wanted to see how it went.
So here is my garlic harvest for 2012:
They look more like onions than garlic to me, but I will give them a try when they are a bit dryer in a couple weeks.
So out of the 12 cloves I planted I have 4 good size, 4 little ones, 3 started rotting in the ground (we have had tons of rain) and 1 that didn't grow at all.
Not too bad. Next year I am going to try to grow a lot more garlic and plant them in different places around the garden. How great would it be not to have to buy garlic for the entire year!
We also planted some garlic this year. How do you know when hey are ready to harvest?
ReplyDeleteI also had to ask my garlic supplier the same question. They said when the leaves fall over. It is usually November/December. Hope you get a good harvest!
