Thank you so much for this video! This is the second year in a row I have used this method for my garlic. It’s much easier than braiding for me.

[@joycemcclure8436]

Thank you. I struggled to braid my garlic last year. This year it will be easy.

[@christinehbailey]

My first year growing garlic, I’m excited to try this! Thank you!

[@irenemitchell9074]

I braid mine when the stalks are still green as they’re supple then hang to cure.

[@robinbell8115]

Thank you so much! I never knew I could braid hard neck garlic, and now I can! 😁

[@bevcar9982]

Thank you the hard neck garlic looks so good, and it is a great way to show in your kitchen. Well done.

[@GARDENER42]

I never thought about braiding hardneck garlic (braided softneck for many years).
Too late this year for most of mine, as the stems are hard & dry but I've around 30 late maturing which were only harvested a week ago, so another week & I'll try this.

[@marymcandrew7667]

Thank you! I just braided my garlic following your instructions, very easy and fun trying something new!

[@dlh987]

I planted only hardneck garlic and this was good method for them. Can't wait for autumn when I will plant more.

[@ahbon8906]

My family is trying to be more self sufficient and we currently have $129 in seeds and we don’t even have corn or potatoes so we’re trying to learn as many skills as possible and no one likes food without garlic thank you

Very nicely done!

[@coreopolis]

Very nice, enjoyed watching, thank you.

[@redroseaus]

Wow, thanks for sharing...

[@b2manufacturing]

That’s perfect because they’re not touching each other like soft neck would be. Gotta get the timing right but that’s not too difficult. I’m definitely going to try

[@insookc3230]

how and why some people make dislike.😠.
very good job madam.. thinks.👍

[@sn232]

Beautiful! A rolling pin rolled over the stalks would also help to soften them, and I also like the one comment someone left about using a hammer to soften the stalks also. Do you start cutting them off first from the top of the braid, or from the bottom sides and work your way upward? Thank you!

[@insookc3230]

Can’t use hammer-It attracts so many bugs

[@insookc3230]

Yes from top

[@sn232]

@@insookc3230 oh that would not be good, thank you for letting me know :)

Tap the stocks with a hammer to soften

[@demjel6955]

vos mains nous laissent penser que vous travaillez beaucoup, merci et bonne continuation

[@insookc3230]

I tried your way but there were lots of fruit bugs if you braid before you cure it

[@lindaspellman2108]

Could you braid softneck garlic like this?

[@insookc3230]

Yes much easier than hard neck
Thank you for watching
Insook

[@paulp4452]

Could you braid before the stalks have dried out?

[@insookc3230]

If you braid before cure them, you get A lot of fruit bugs and eventually they get rotten

[@crystals14acregarden61]

I was wondering about this too, thank you

[@insookc3230]

2 weeks after harvest your garlic is best time to braid

[@bearfoot561]

Everybody braids there garlic differently...

[@bessiejones8755]

Thank you! I just harvested my garlic yesterday. 🧄👨🏾‍🌾
