VIDEO: Companion Planting Garlic


Garlic Loves Other Plants…And Other Plants Love Garlic! Garlic is one of the best Companion Crops you can plant. It can be used as a natural pest deterrent and even a fungicide. Garlic has very few incompatible neighbours and its space – nutrient requirements are very minimal. Companion Planting is an easy, low maintenance way to improve the structure and function of your garden. Garlic’s inherent properties make it one of the kings of growing in unison with other plants!

In this video I will show you how to Companion Plant your Garlic in your very own backyard garden, as well as my top 5 crops that I like to plant alongside my Garlic for the best results. In addition, if you stay to the end, I’ll also give you the 6 crops to avoid planting anywhere near your Garlic!

  2. I keep my refrigerator at 34 deg. F and found 2 sleeves of garlic that started sprouting just a few days ago. Is it worth giving it a go and planting them? Some factors to consider, I live in zone 9a (Henderson NV) yesterday we topped out over 70 deg. F for the high and lows are from the mid 40's to 50's. The garlic is store bought product of Mexico purchased at La Bonita Supermarket. I figure it may be worth a try because it is hardy enough that it sprouted in the cold dark refrigerator at near freezing temperatures and if I plant it now it should be able to establish roots (the bees are still active on my shrubs in the frond yard is how my weather is). First frost in my zip code is Dec 10 and last frost Feb 10. I in no way think I'd get a super big bulb harvest out of it, but I think it may be an opportunity to temper the garlic for some excellent future harvests. Please give me your thoughts on this, going to plant it today, I'm thinking I should also be sure and plant it with the sprouts above the soil and hope it roots. Any advise is appreciated, my first planting. I also have some organic cloves in the freezer on Nov 11 hoping to plant them around Dec 20 or so. Thanks again.

  3. help. This is my first year planting garlic I planted about 3-4" deep covered about 4" straw about 4 weeks ago. Some is sprouting now and it looks amazing. I live in Southern ontario and we can get the odd day -20C in jan and feb am I okay or should I cover with more straw??

  4. Thank you for posting. I am in the US, and we are tearing ourselves apart. Not making a political statement, just stating a fact. Former friends are now "kill you" enemies. It is awful. So appreciate, what you do. An escape. The wife watches HGTV, I watch veg vids, in separate rooms. She comes in teasingly accusing me of watching porn, all I say is yes – "Vegetable Pornography" – then looks at it and says, "Not another 5 gallon planter!" Thanks again, you do a great job.

  5. Awesome video…just in time for my garden planning….I wonder if I can plant it among my pepper and tomato plants too? Again thanks for the info your efforts are appreciated simple and clear…also really digging the golden pooch! All the best from stormy NY!

  6. You have a video on storing your garlic cloves in the freezer to plant out in the fall. I followed it step by step. I froze 21 Russian Red Hard neck Garlic cloves. I planted them out with 5 other varieties of garlic and I'm checking them often like you do the mail box when you are expecting money. So far I don't see any signs of life but I'm trusting the process. You know your stuff. I'll give you a follow up comment when I harvest in about 7 months. 😉

  7. question about companion planting, does this work as well with square foot gardening? as in if i plant them next to each other will i still get the benefits?
