  2. Thanks, Mark! I only just saw this video, so I missed your competition but bought a sifter. Thanks for the coupon code! It made a big difference! This is a fantastic invention, and I’m so happy to get one while also supporting a fellow gardener. Many thanks from Florida!

  3. @Self Sufficient Me Marc, my Garlic growing buddies replant even the tiny cloves. The tiny cloves make single bulb garlic, about half the size of normal garlic. but the following year, the single clove bulbs make huge garlic. 2 year trip, but BIG garlic.

  4. Hi mark how's things great idea love the comp I'm too late for it but that's cool love the forum and joined anyways great to share with everyone feel free to check the post out its under Green Dreams and I'm starting a garden from scratch using Marks ideas and help from the forum keep up the great work Mate

  5. Apparently fresh lawn clippings around the garlic helps the rust problem.
    Also, when do you plant the Garlic? There are certain times you should do that. There is 4 months to do it. About week window for each month.

  6. Drought-tolerant Garlic Varieties may be the best so when the next generation is moisture deprived it will flower so generational based bulbs may come through resprouting in the wet season. Garlic bulbs remaining might have resprouted once natural resprout 'bulb' should reviven itself. Your situation may have been overplanted or some other issue, lots of Garlic Varieties, my bulbs that would resprout furthered my ongoing garlic situations, learned this in Area 7 NA Plant so a real rainy season and milder winters lets Garlic bulbs be themselves, yet leaving them to be natural yearly rotations not digging up tje whole patch.2B? C?gcy7a?x

  7. Basically Garlic will show stress in dry, hotter conditions, so that can be a misread to think they were dying off, so some may have been left to sprout, without turning the whole bed or crop.

  8. A big second year bulb will usually exhibit strong advantage as bulb groups left in planting areas will generally naturalize being wisely sought after these multi-year plantings do provide great support for ongoing garlic crops.

  9. Best channel. God bless you all. 1Corinthians15:1-4=Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, HOW THAT CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES; AND THAT HE WAS BURIED, AND THAT HE ROSE AGAIN THE THIRD DAY ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES.
    Ephesian 1:13=In whom ye also TRUSTED, after that ye heard the word of truth, the GOSPEL of your SALVATION: in whom also after that ye BELIEVED, ye were SEALED with that holy Spirit of promise.
    Ephesian 2:8-9=For by GRACE are ye SAVED through FAITH; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of WORKS, lest any man should boast.
    Romans 3:23-26=For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being JUSTIFIED FREELY by his GRACE through the REDEMPTION that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a PROPITIATION through FAITH in his BLOOD, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which BELIEVETH in Jesus. Without blood there is no life and without Jesus BLOOD no eternal life.
