Aren’t you doing this a little early?
Good video! Thanks for making these! Planted 200 cloves on Sunday. Have another 200 to do later this week. Garlic prices very greatly. Got mine from an organic farm in NY this year, quality product at a reasonable price. There are also good sources in Wisconsin, Maine, and other nearby places. You should do a video on overwintering spinach. I tried that this year for the first time. Used metal hoops and Agribonnet. Planted in September and had a huge crop in March/April.
$.75 a head? Here they were on sale at local country store yor $3.75 a head. Canada.
Always love your videos! Thanks!
Always open for ADVENTURE thank you from Ontario Canada
How about some videos about winter sowing? Starting seeds in jugs and letting them sit in a sunny location. What seeds would you do?
What about mulching the garlic after it is planted? What do you cover it with and how deep?
Whats the best thing to do if something digs up your garlic after it is sprouting?
Hi. Do you cover your beds after planting garlic? Would it hurt it if I do cover it?
Due to this crazy warm October, one of my garlic varieties has not only sprouted but is 6" tall! I hope it isn't a lost cause.
Luke you can barter with a friend to get garlic from them to give some seeds to them from a GREAT Tomatoes Plant something you can't find or maybe purple string beans that is what I did with a neighbor across the street then I had some other things she liked Oh Oh we have had some trading off of seeds it is fun to do !!! Also some times I have to many strawberries plants she has those now !!!
Luke remember the spinach and radishes they are great spinach salads and radish sliced on up with onions to fry their great !!!
I'm hoping I didn't plant mine too soon, but I'm in zone 9a and I planted mine on October 10! Here's crossing my fingers..
Am I too late to throw some in the ground this weekend if I am in Bay city Mi? Zone 5/6
This isn't well organized or presented for a "first time HOWTO". The recommended planting date is buried around the 7 minute mark. You don't teach people that have ever only grown spring & summer plants that frost prediction calendars/charts exist or point them to one you trust. And finally, you don't mention at all how deep you're planting. It looks like you're just barely covering the clove, but then you're going to come back and cover with mulch later I assume. And you might even apply compost on top making them even deeper. I don't know, because you didn't say.
OMG I just ate the first clove of garlic from my garden YESTERDAY and it was the most garlicy tasting garlic I've ever had! 100% organic. 100% delicious! I know it was late but for some reason none of my plants produced this year until September, including the tomatoes! Idk why. Thanks, Luke, for always having timely videos!
So 3 1/2" spacing tops? Other videos state 4"-6" or is that just for trying to get the biggest bulb?
At Aldi's I got an organic hardneck from Spain, and it's sprouting fine.
I spent 100.00 dollars on hardback garlic from cali..did nothing..I also grew 7.00 dollars worth from my local amish…ended up with nothing from the cali…125 plants of huge garlic from the amish..I saved back in July and replanted my seed garlic…hoping for another bumper crop
I just got my garlic planted! I am in Central California and so enjoyed this post.
Great video. Enjoyable. Thanks.
You're not planting it in a straight line!
200 heads of garlic in a year? that's a lot of eating garlic!
Luke!!! Help… do you keep the bulbs exposed or cover the spots where you pushed them down with soil? I’ve watched two of your garlic videos and it seems like you leave the garlic exposed. I planted mine a week ago and covered them with the soil. Do I need to reveal them again? Thanks.
We like watching you plant different plants over and over again, because ur skill level improves every year and that helps us.
I am in Zone 7A. Wondering if I can use Asparagus ferns (once they turn brown) as a mulch covering for my garlic?
New gardener question here. After planting garlic in the fall, do you have to continue to water it or does it go dormant. I live in Houston zone 9 if that makes a difference. Thanks
I planted about 100 cloves 2-3 weeks ago, right before our first freeze date. Is there anything I can do to save them? They are sprouting! Would covering them with more dirt or mulch help?
