How to Plant, Grow, Harvest & Cure Elephant Garlic | Expensive Garlic

- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- We love cooking with this expensive garlic, so we grow a lot of this at home.
This is a complete guide to growing elephant garlic at home.
This variety of garlic is TWICE as large as regular garlic. It is actually a leek,
but it grows and tastes much like traditional hardneck and softneck garlic varieties.

I love the how-to videos y'all put together all year long! I have learned so much from you... I especially appreciate how you keep God as the reason for these great subjects. Hoping to do the same in my own garden and other videos! Keep inspiring us all!! ♥️
these progress videos you do are priceless. One of the better gardening channels on here. Thank you for putting in the time and effort. I've been subscribed for a really long time and don't think I've ever commented. Thank you for blessing us and may God continue to bless you, your family and all those you personally bless. I appreciate you.
From start to finish-1 growing season all in 1 video-love it!
I like the way you use a "start to finish" approach on your videos. I think I will try to over winter some elephant garlic this year. Thanks for sharing your skills with us!
We grew our first round of the elephant garlic last fall, and I just cleaned it up and put it away because of this video, thank you Hollis and Nancy and GOD bless both of you!! Really appreciate you guys taking us along and passing on some knowledge.
I love your Florida homestead and amazed at the transformation from start to now. I don't think rest is in your vocabulary. Lol I do love watching your show and and the inspiration it provides to so many.
Bing Bing is the sweetest little dog I ever saw. I love how he hugs you, just like a child.
You two are surely living the dream on your homestead. Eating healthy
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and knowledge of what you doing today aloha from Hawaii
Yeah good Ole Georgia boy love that ...that's where I'm from Born and raised here too love it .....
Nice garlic 🧄 I think we need to see Nancy cook 👩🍳
Thank you Debbie. She released a video last Sunday using some of this Elephant Garlic❤️
I will check it out. Thank you!
Got my elephant garlic in yesterday Mr. Hollis. So, you know... I had to stop by your gardening school here to learn how to plant it. 🤣🤣🤣Thank you for another wonderful teaching moment.
Good job 👍. Enjoy your Elephant Garlic ❤️
Great to see you all again, love the channel and all the veg you both grow. I have grown the potatoes “in the bucket” for a few years now, love them. Time to branch out and see what else I can grow with the help of your wisdom and skill, fun too.
Many thanks for all your hard work. That shot of the dog contentedly wagging its tail was a sweet bonus.
Nice drying table and dark shade
Thank you. It made a huge difference
I love the way that you take a start to finish to each one of your growing stages with ideas and tips you and your wife do a fabulous job thank you so much zone 9A
An exceptionally good video! I enjoyed you advancing it thru the entire season and showing us the lengthy progression of its life cycle. Thanks a bunch… Will
I really appreciate how you've shown this video showing start to finish. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Good to hear your roots are from Georgia I’m a Georgia Peach 🍑 original myself. I almost moved to Ft. Myers a few years ago but, stayed in good old Georgia 🍑😊
Mr. Hollis, my elephant garlic is doing well. I pray I’ve followed your instructions well so I can get a great harvest.
You will do fine. Keep up the prayers 🙏❤️
I like this channel. Much love to Hollis and Nancy. 😇
Hi Hollis. As my family migrated from Virginia through Georgia to Alabama, they started a little town near Valdosta called Ousley.
Those corns are used for a stirfry totally awesome
THANK YOU SO MUCH MR HOLLIS AND MRS NANCY!!!!
You are very welcome ❤️
Awesome, I am glad I watched. I almost planted too soon. It is still a hot month of August here in South Carolina .
Thank you! This was so helpful! I so awesome to have the whole growing process in just one video. Thanks for the effort you put into making this!
❤️
Excellent Video !
Glad you liked it!
Thanks, I always enjoy your videos. And I especially love that you and Nancy end each video with a prayer. You're good people.
My wife and I enjoy your videos
Awesome looking garlic. Miss Nancy needs to write a cookbook. Her food looks so delicious.
I been watching y’all for years me and my husband lives on 30 acres north Florida
Hi Hollis & Nancy! I sooo love and appreciate the videos. You both are such great teachers; you inspire me to plant a bigger garden, and to plant smart! Please don´t stop making these great videos, I refer back to them often. Many Blessings, Melanie
Thank you Melanie for your kind words of encouragement. We get very discouraged with our RUclips channel. Low views, subscribers leaving, nasty, mean comments, etc. At times we feel like giving up. Then we get a loving comment from someone like you and we feel inspired again and remember this is a ministry not a RUclips channel. We are thankful for you reminding us our videos bring happiness to others and help them. Have a peaceful weekend Melanie❤️❤️🐶
I love that I can see the entire growth season
Love you & Nancy videos…that’s a nice storage pantry 😊
Thank you so much for the informative videos. I've just subscribed and because the videos have brought a smile on my face.
Also the advertisers should pay you more.
That was great, guys!!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I have learned so much from them.
I love your videos. Thank you very much for sharing all your knowledge with all
You are so welcome!

Love the close-up video of the Bing Bing at the end!!
Love you two so much. I have learned so much from you. Thank you.
Can’t wait to build my table it’s gonna come in handy
Thanks so much. I planted some in a container just to see what they’ll do. Hoping for success
After watching you in Florida . Im in south Georgia I am
Going to try some myself . Thank you for the video and the information. Im near Valdosta
Your videos always bring me peace and joy
I order many plants/bulbs/seeds from Hoss. Since I'm in zone 8b, they demonstrate a knowledge of what grows in this area. Thanks for all of your time showing how to grow and harvest garlic.
HOSS are some good folks❤️
Thank you.( GOBBY) south africa &god bless
thank you for showing your garden bed preparation , etc,depth ,fertiliser and position of the corns /bulbs . i have watched many Videos and they Don't show that important part !! they just assume every one knows
You are very welcome 👍. Hope our videos help you in your garden❤️. Have a peaceful weekend
@@HollisNancysHomestead thanks Greetings from Australia
I’ve never seen such huge garlic! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕
Great video. I appreciate the time you invested to make it.
I live in Southwest Georgia on the shores of Lake Seminole. Of course, it was not here when your daddy was around. You could go to Florida and Alabama without driving so far around the lake. My Great Great grandfather Long used to come up the Chattahoochee on a flat bottom boat from Florida. He is buried Elmdale, Florida. When it was a hole in the road.
I just got this Video... Thanks!
Thanks for the instructions today and thanks for the tip about Hoss Tool's channel.
👍
Thank you looking forward to starting mine 😁
We live in Maine, Zone 5Bish. We all develop our own perceptions growing up.
Had never seen Garlic grown in the Northern climates, so assumed it was a
Southern crop. We don't get frost here, we get FREEZE here, feet deep. Watched
how Hollis did it. Ordered some German Extra Hardy from Filigree Farms, and
got some store bought and was off and running. The Xtra Hardy, 100% germination,
56 bulbs, store bought 3. The 2nd year planted our own Xtra Hardy and bought
some Music variety. Also a couple Elephant. (Just to try) This time 100%
germination and harvest! Last fall we planted our own grown Xtra Hardy and Music.
Following Hollis's lead, we are now self-sufficient growing Garlic. 3 years from
Nay Sayer, to believer! 150-160 cloves planted with plenty bulbs left over to share
with friends, family, and our own use. Thank you for the inspiration my friend.
I didn't see you soak your cloves. 1qt water, 1tbls baking soda, 1tbls fish emulsion.
Is it because of the climate you now are in?
Mark n Rosa
You are doing awesome on your garlic👍👍. I don’t bother soaking my elephant garlic bulbs. Never had any problem with it. Saves me a step. I only do it with soft and hard necks. Still trying to become successful with soft and hard necks down here in these hot/humid conditions not to mention Sandy soil. Working with Keene Garlic on an experiment right now. Hopefully the results will be good this summer. Once I find the right varieties I will commit to growing some on a larger scale. It’s a struggle.
I just found you I think yesterday or the day before and I’ve been binge watching you. Love your progressive videos!
Wow! it's realy elephant garlic, it's so huge. Thanks for sharing this information.
thank you for taking me in this journey, you inspire me to try.
I got my German hardneck garlic from Hoss.. I was very impressed with all of it. I've since got some big beef tomato seeds and pre ordered my potato seed from them. They pretty good ol boys..
Thank you for both the tutorial on garlic and link on Hoss tools.
Love these start to finish videos.
I found four clumps of what is supposed to be elephant garlic. Abandoned 5 to 10 years ago. Around 30 or 40 bulbs in a clump, very few bigger than a golf ball. I'm trying to get a raised bed finished to bust up the clumps and plant them out more like they should be. Kinda late and they're already starting to grow. Will have to do. They were still full of seed heads from all the blossoms. Youtubing for the best way(s) to do it. Lots of tips here.
I thoroughly enjoy watching all of your videos. Many Blessings!
❤️❤️🐶
Thanks for all that you do! I have learned alot from you and Nancy.
❤️
Thank you for making this video, super informative, we love all of your videos! Yes HOSS Tools is a top of the line gardening company, happy to see you using some of their products, you will be well satisfied!
God Bless Hollis & Nancy!
Yes sir, been using their products for years
Goodness! I love fresh garlic & have never tried this one. I'm moving back to Florida in September & as soon as I get settled ill put it on my list. I love seeing Bing-Bing in the videos. Thanks!
Awesome job. Really can learn a lot with your knowledge. Thanks and God Bless you and your Family.
Wonderful full video. Love you guys. God bless you!
Thank you for watching! Got plenty more videos coming your way this year ❤️
I justv love to our video.
Those cloves are huge. I am sure Nancy has good recipes for them. I hope she shares some in the future. I really like your videos. Do y’all sell your veggies when you have more than you can can?
GOD bless you both and bing bing. Can't forget him😁
❤️🐶❤️
Thank you for the effort on this video. I'm up in the thumb of Michigan and hardnecks thrive here. I planted 160. I have been wanting to grow Elephants for some time and I have some coming up and I am hopeful. I really want to try making a middle eastern spread called Toom with them as the hardnecks have too sharp of flavor and get too spicy for it. God Bless you both!
Try Inchelium Red Garlic instead. It is easily as big as Elephant Garlic, but still true garlic.
Thank you, so informative and I love how you give our precious Lord Jesus all the credit.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much
Sure do love your videos!
Big 🧄 garlic thanks 🙏 for the video and tips..😊
Recently found your videos...great information and inspiration...God Bless!!
Great tutorial Holllis ... Beautiful garlic.
Thank you for all your videos! You inspire this Georgia girl! Middle to South East Georgia☺️
Keep up the good work
Thanks, Appreciate your support.
You are very welcome. ❤️
@@HollisNancysHomestead Sent ya'll an email!
Greeting from Williston Fla, zone 9a ... I was referred by a group on MeWe ... I'm a 65 yr old gardening rookie ( raised beds ) ... so I shall look your way for knowledge
We are in Zone 9A too.
Great, detailed and informative video.
Questions.....
1. How often did you find yourself watering, typically? About how much?
2. How long do these bulbs sit in your pantry to finish curing? Can you use them right away?
Anyone can answer if they know!
Thank you
Growing hardnecks “Music” in south central Alaska. Plant deep and mulch heavy end of September. What isn’t eaten or given away gets fermented in honey. I add bone/ blood meal in the spring. I will try it to the bottom of furrows next year.
Nancy fermented some garlic in honey for about 5 years. She recently used some of it to make a honey/garlic hot sauce with some of the hot peppers I grew in the garden. It tasted so good!! Even I can eat it with my sensitive stomach. I love it on chicken or pork. ❤️❤️. She made a video on making it that will be released at the end of this summer. Hope you get a chance to see it👍
Love the info, thanks so much as always!! Really like the beard sir!!
❤️
You guys are doing a great job and I am learning so much from you .I would really appreciate if you can help me to know where I can buy some elephant garlic to plant I live in kissimmee florida .I am trying to plant my own stuff after I beat cancer. I will definitely will try to plant onions this year just like how you explain how to grow yours .Thank you so so much. God bless you and your wife 🙏 ❤️
Elephant garlic is much milder so I have to use more but it is fun to grow. Thx for sharing
❤️
Man, I grew elephant garlic for the first time last fall/winter. Had big beautiful green growth, but come harvest time all that was produced underground were singular bulbs “ rounds “. I was pretty disappointed about it because that was a long time to take up the garden space for only producing a little round. I’m going to give it one more go this season here in 9b Central FL.
Leave those in the ground. They will mature next year
@@pambennett8967 yes, I know. With limited space I had to pull them to plant summer crops. Regardless, I’m not really interested in growing something that takes two years to give such a small harvest. Like I said I’ll try planting cloves one more time, and if it doesn’t work I’ll move on.
Thank you
You're welcome
Not sure how far south you are but I've seen soft neck garlic grown around here in zone 8b but it takes about 2 months in the fridge for stratification. But we also just grow elephant garlic. It's good enough and easy enough
My favorite garlic, sir. Thanks.
Mine too!
I started late with my soft neck garlic here in Central, Florida. I'm going to see what happens. Montezuma GA roots and Florida raised, too!
I love your video's. I learn so much from you. I must add that I am somewhat skeptical when a company sends products for you to use. I say this because I have seen other folks get and use products that companies send them knowing the folks are "influencers". They ship them really good stuff but when regular folks order products they aren't as good as what they sent to the influencers.
I would like to know other folks experiences with ordering this same product from the same company.
I don't live there any more but I'm from the "SHOW ME STATE" (if you know you know).
Keep up the wonderful videos!
Just discovered you guys, a great channel I subbed
Good timing, I'm growing garlic. Sounds like I need to plant it deeper though 🤔 Thanks, as always!
That’s some BIG BEAUTIFUL ELEPHANT GARLIC 🧄! I think I’ll grow / plant some this fall.
Thank you for your beautiful gardening journey! 🥒🌽🍓🥬🧄🧄🍠🥦🍒
We love all kinds of garlic ❤️❤️❤️
Another great video 👍 thank you. I'm now going to give garlic a try this year
Wait until the fall to plant them and let them overwinter👍. Harvest around June/July
@@HollisNancysHomestead thanks for the tip 👍
You can do this❤️
Wow
Thanks for sharing 🙏 😎 🏖 🏝
❤️
Good evening I live in Savannah Georgia and I was wondering is there a specific garlic I can grow in the summer or is it only in the winter. Thank you and I love all your videos. It’s a great help for me. God Bless you both.
