I harvested the first batch of garlic yesterday and have it stored in a cool dark spot to dry. I have enough little garlic cloves to get started all over again. Here’s the proof in the picking:
Fresh picked garlic
Trimmed garlic ready to dry.
Garlic buds to refill the tire planter.
Drying out in the woodhouse where it’s dark and cool.
Where did you get that?

When do you plant garlic?

Anywhere. I have it around the garden and haylot and I have a big tire that I filled with dirt and planted in it. That’s where I harvested on Saturday.

In the fall or spring usually but since it’s so early I think I’ll try to reset some now and see how it fairs. If it’s not big enough before the first frost, I’ll mulch it and wait until spring.
