Thanks for the video Huw. Would you be able to share the details of where you buy your garlic bulbs for planting as I find the ones in garden shops way overpriced in UK. We will be moving to your neck of the woods a few farms across the road very soon ๐ so hopefully will run into you at the next agricultural show.
I ordered different garlic in the mail then low and behold, this video drops! Great tips for this first time grower.
Excellent
Very intetesting. Did not know there were soft and hard neck varieties. Southern hemisphere grower here. Planted 300 cloves of elepant garlic back in late June. Elephant garlic doesn't get rust. Love it!
Great tips.
Love your videos. Not necessarily related but I was wondering if you do any non food crops like bird house gourd or luffa? Even tho not food still useful.
Hi do you get allium leaf miner? Iโve had it on my leeks this year and have just planted our garlic elsewhere but I may well cover it even I see it come through

Can you provide a more detailed description of the diagonal planting plan?
How much garlic does one need?
Thanks x
Can you share a link to making the honey garlic, please?
Elephant garlic is not garlic.
It is a leek, Allium Ampeloprasum.
Huw, can you make a video on how to get seeds from all your vegetables to plant again next year?
I heard never to plant beans near garlic or onions, it is obviously not true. ๐
What do you use for your pest control?

I've been growing garlic for a few years, but have had issues. You have answered all my questions and (I think!) solved all my problems. Thank you so much, Huw.
Hi we're from the Philippines. Thanks for the informative video about garlic. We follow your tips about how to grow garlic and we love the results. We'll also upload it soon ๐
The optimal arrangement for a symmetrical garden plot is still the traditional rows, geometrically speaking. (Calc by drawing circles.) The criss-cross becomes optimal only when the plot doesn't quite fit the optimal distancing the crop needs. Easy sol: plant straight rows, if awkward left over space exists, use the criss-cross to max that margin.
Whats a good top dressing feed for my garlic bed?
After planting in grow bags (zone 7b) is watering in spring done more frequently than in ground?
Hewge yields – and perfect, distinct English. Thank you very much and have a nice day…ah, and do not forget that you can work with one snail eating the other one, with one snake eating the first snail, and with a cat eating the snake a.s.o…a little more of the "biotopic" or even "biutopic" way, I'd say…the problem is not mentioned in this video, still I want to leave the hint here…have a good time, and go on!
Can you use supermarket bought bulbs?
