    It was my first year attempting to grow garlic. I should have documented my progress for others to learn from my experience of what NOT TO DO. It was a fail for me. I google how to cure bulbs and your video popped up. Having watched your video, I know the whys of my outcome. I subscribed. Wish I came across your videos last year.

      Thanks Joan... Storage is easy.... As long as it's not in the oven or in the freezer, they are getting planted in like 2 months. That's why I didn't mention it because the timeline is so short, it kind of doesn't really matter.

    I store most by peeling, processing to coarse mush then make little pucks with s small cookie dough scoop. Flash freeze then put into a bag in the freezer. Instant garlic when needed and no storage worries once cured a bit.

    This was my first year growing garlic. I only grew 8 bulbs but they did great. I just finished the curing process last night. I grew German Extra Hearty and Northern White. I am in northern Ohio so I picked those thinking they would do well with our cold winters. I have ordered some different ones for this year to see how they do also. I am pretty excited to see and hopefully I will never have to buy garlic again.

    I love the Music hardneck variety and wow this year's crop is phenomenal! I mulched with tons of chopped leaves and chopped weeds in late October. That are still very green with only a few leaves dying off so I harvest 100 at a time. My only issue is that it has been rainy so much so not able yet to harvest when soil is dryer. Thanks for the tips Jeff and appreciate you! 👍🌱🥰 Have you ever pickled garlic? I tried it last year and it's very good.

    @larryydens3050 Год назад +1

    We’ll, I made a few mistakes… this is my first time growing garlic. I harvested my Red Russian hardneck about a month after cutting the scapes, and only after the bottom 2 leaves had dried up. I did not stop the watering (drip) before harvesting. And I used a garden fork to help loosen up the soil. But I only had one bulb that was split!! It’s been drying in my shed with all the windows open, but not hanging them bulb down (I’m drying them on an open tray). It’s not cool with the heat wave, but it’s pretty good and the best I got. The papery covering is coming along nicely. I harvested my soft neck last week. I’ll give it another week or two, and likely braid them for storage. The one split one tasted amazing though, and most are the same size as your. But I have a question: what do you do to the bed after you’ve harvested. Mine has some straw, but is somewhat dug up. I’m hoping not to add another to my list of mistakes!! I’m not planning on planting in it (I don’t know what to plant), and will likely plant onions next year. My onion bed across the path is doing nicely now too!! I I hope you give us some tips on harvesting onion before then!! Thanks for all your information. I’m a newbie Orchardist who wants to plant things around my new trees…
