Do you have a link for the biodegradable paper cups you use?
Three years ago, I bought some locally grown hard neck garlic in the grocery store and planted some of it in the middle of October. All of the cloves survived the winter and grew into nice size, healthy looking heads. I saved the biggest heads to use for planting the following October. I haven't had to buy garlic ever since. I wish that everything in my veggie garden would be as easily grown as the garlic.
Right? That's exactly how you do it! Buy stuff that's grown locally because you know it'll work for your climate and within a year, you'll never buy garlic again!
Wow, thank you for the information. ❤
What zone are you? I just planted mine in fall and it’s has leaves now but I’m hoping it will grow some bulb, the first time I planted it didn’t do anything just dried up. So now I’m trying it on pots individually. Thanks for the tips
@@emylytle5409 I am in zone 6a in Southern Ontario, Canada. I added some bone meal in each planting hole. (I do the same when planting tulips) I planted the cloves 3" deep measured from the top of the clove to make sure that they will not freeze. Today, their leaves are about 5" - 6" long. I never put any mulch over them. But I do cover them with chicken wire so the squirrels would not try to dig them out. I don't start watering them until about middle of April when the weather starts getting warm. That's when I give them some balanced water soluble fertilizer. What zone are you in?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Yes. I used the same logic.
One of the best explanations of growing garlic I’ve seen ❤
Thanks, appreciate that!
True story. My spous died in dec of 22. And last nov i found a bulb of garlic that got pushed behind a bottle in the back of the refridgerator. I planted it and it sproured like crazy. And in early feb it started to dry up and turn brown. I figured it just wasnt viable. So I harvested it and was going to put it in the compost bin but it was perfect. It was ripe. The cloves formed and all. I had small but perfect little garlics. I was uttlerly amazed it formed that quick.
I am farming garlic in korea.
I had a lot of questions about garlic cultivation.
Thank you for the great video.
I needed this video last year.
I wish I could have found this channel sooner. 🌱
Setting up my new gardener's journal for the year so this was timely. Garlic is perfect for a spot that I hadn't decided what to do with. Wishing you and your family a very Happy Easter.
Right on Sandy! Excited to see all your progress this year! Happy Easter!
Jeff,I don’t grow garlic,but I know it’s a popular crop. Gardeners can absorb as much info watching a short video you’ve made as reading a 200 page book. We can’t get enough! More please!
Thanks Jim....you know I got more for sure!
Nice video Jeff! I have to agree with you that garlic has become my very favorite thing to grow! It has been a several year journey for me but it is a great crop to grow here in Wisconsin. I have helped/coached several friends who were frustrated trying to grow it and now they realize how easy it really is! So forgiving and fun!
Right on Jayne! Thanks for passing on your knowledge!
I was going nuts trying to figure out why half of my garlic was already needing to be harvested and the other half not even close. Then this video pops up🤦🏽♀️ Two different types of garlic in my yard and I just forgot! Thanks for the information.
Ha ha you grew the most epic two crops without even trying.....love it!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I harvested 56 today but I've got 200 that need a few more months. That'll be our garlic and our cloves for starting next year's harvest. So glad I'm getting this gardening thing down. Only took three years lol
Here in San Diego I pulled my softnecks a month ago. My hardnecks still need time. No scapes yet. 5/31/24
Recently found your channel, thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge and most of all experience in an easy and simple way so anyone can apply it. 👩🏻🌾🐝i often feel alone in doing things simple and in my one way without rushing to the store and buy everything.. nature alone have the most answers 👩🏻🌾🐝🌱so keep up the good work 👏🌱looking forward to follow you 😊
That's awesome Annette! Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching! Best of luck this year with all your harvests!
I bought hard neck garlic and planted in the late fall, however, critters in the area decided to dig them up and have a feast.
Yup, squirrels and rats both just love them unfortunately
Good Friday Jeff and family ❤😊 EXCELLENT Teaching Jeff as always 😊❤
You too Melinda, happy Easter weekend for you guys! 🙂
Hi Jeff, always great videos with plenty of useful info. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊
Thank you for a great video. I had many questions about growing garlic - you answered them.
Very timely for me, as having planted a combo of a grocery store softneck & a seed supply store specific hard neck & softneck last September, I'm now starting to look at the foliage, eagerly awaiting my first harvest.
Right on Wendy! Let us know how it turns out!
Thank you Jeff, I noticed your still getting some snow up there.
I've been watching the weather map, looking for signs of spring weather but it's been cold in Texas also.
You are tested up there, but you still keep going! Enjoyed the visit
Hey Naomi...its been a spring so far to forget, that's for sure! Ha ha. Hope all is well with you!
This is a fantastic video! Thank you!
Thanks Anne, appreciate it! 🙂
Top video again Jeff. Missed all my growing over the last year due to mum being ill and house moves to provide care for her......but.......I managed to keep my 5 year old garlics going and decided to plant in pots to accommodate the house moves! So there still with me and will be nurtured back to larger more tastier bed grown bulbs over the next few seasons in our new house forever. I couldn't agree with you more that garlic is one of the most easiest, but rewarding crops to grow, store and regrow year after year! Top man Jeff. Keep well from Phil in Wigan, UK. 😊
Hey buddy, sorry to hear that. Hope you're doing ok. Good to hear about the garlic... That's dedication man!
Thank you I learned something new.😊
I have enjoyed your videos. You are very clear and informative. Thank you
Well I’ve learned something today! I’m switching to soft neck garlic now! I’ve had no success with the hard neck so onward and upward! Thank you!!!❤❤❤
Thank you!
I perform vernalization of my hardnecks in the fridge, in baggies of damp soil, 5-8 weeks before I want to plant. By the end of that time, the cloves have nice roots and are ready to go right into the garden. This way I plant in Florida in October with a late March to mid-April harvest, and another crop in Michigan...planting in late-April to early May with harvest in October. This works great for me, being a snowbird. I have two harvests a year, and never run out, and I don't have to worry about planting too early in Michigan and losing crops to on/off frosts/freezes if the sprouts are up too early....not to mention I can grow hardnecks in zone 10.
Yes, you can definitely trick the bulbs into thinking they had a winter! Nice work Donald!
I see I planted hard neck in zone 7b-8a and I thought id have some this spring but just a lil bit is all I needed but when I looked at it and it looked like that lil one you pulled up I almost thought it was a onion cuz I was expecting more cloves and not for the old one to look like that plus I had onions with my garlic
Exactly Page! You're right on track. Let it grow and you'll be in for a summer harvest! But that's right where people make the mistake.... They think it's been 6 months so it must be ready.... But the garlic was essentially dormant the whole time so it's only a few weeks old in terms of growth. It's the March to June period where it will put on its size.
I’m confused. Your video says you are in “zone 9” and that is why you grow hardneck garlic.
Oh hey I think I did good then! I started hardnecks in fall and just planted some softnecks! We'll see in a few months how I did 😊
You can also stick them in the refrigerator to trick them into thinking they've been through winter
Good work sir
My farming in pakistan ❤
I was really bummed the other day when I went to check on my garlic, I had 1 variety that completely died off during winter. That is one good reason to Try several varieties. I will have plenty to harvest, but I know not to grow the German Red variety again.
Dang, sorry to hear that. What do you think went wrong with it?
I resurched the variety more, and it is known to be fussy and needing close to perfect conditions. We had a very mild winter, so it shouldn't be that. As it is a hard neck ment for my colder climate.
Lost two stacking trays of strawberries due to a series of tragedies, a squirrel hiding nuts, a mushroom of some kind, and finally, after I brought them into my porch for the winter, my cat dug one up. Then, last spring, I planted some new strawberry plants from my local nursery that came with a fungus that destroyed the roots in the soil within a month. They didn't grow and just kind of wilted over and turned brown. I cleaned out the trays and left them empty in the sun for the rest of the summer. In the fall, I decided to plant some garlic in them since they don't need a deep container, and they did sprout and stay green all winter on my back porch. I just got them outside today, since we've had such terrible rain lately, I held all my container plants indoors longer. Well, its funny because I'm quite sure I had hardneck, but I was one clove short so I grabbed a clove from another batch I had in the kitchen that was not the same variety, don't know what it was. That's the only one that didn't sprout at all. I'm kind of wondering what the heck happened to it, now its been in the dirt since late October, but I guess I'll see if being outside wakes it up or if its a dud. Anyway thanks for inspiring me to keep going!
Planted garlic for the 1st time in a raise bed last October. All the soft neck came up. Only 1 of the hard neck came up. Should i wait for 8 months or so to see the rest of the hard neck come up? I already had plans to plant something in that space 😊
If the hardneck has access to moisture and temperatures above freezing, it'll sprout within 2 weeks if its viable.
Hi I planted the hard neck garlic last year in November but the squirrels keep on pulling it out
Ugghh...I hear you on that! Squirrels and rats for me this winter.
Does garlic do well if you replant it? I started mine in a raise bed now that it’s spring I like to use my raise bed for other vegetables, and like to put the growing garlic into containers. And your opinion, would it be OK to replant the garlic?
It will most likely live.... But they most certainly do not like being transplanted.
I had a few poking through in late December early January. Then we had a cold snap and actually snow. By the 2nd snap in February all of them died and so far nothing else grown. They’re in pots outside but covered with wire mesh 😢
Oh no.... Have you dug anything up to see if it was a total loss?
Why are my garlic necks so thin where it connects to the bulb? 😢they are all soft and soggy. They are only 7 weeks old. Would they get stronger?
Thật diệu kỳ ,cây có thể sinh trưởng ở nhiệt độ thấp 🌱👍.
Would elephant garlic be considered soft neck? And would normal times be the same?
My softneck garlic was very stunted at first, so I don’t know if it’ll produce much of a harvest
Let us know how it goes... Garlic can surprise you sometimes!
How do you know what kind your buying in the grocery store
You don't. If you're buying grocery store stuff to plant, buy from a local market that uses local produce. That way, you KNOW its designed to grow in your area.
What happens when you missed pulling up you mature hard neck garlic that was planted in the fall?
Like when it keeps growing past the harvest date? Its the same as planting a whole bulb. They all sprout up, but are improperly-spaced, so they don't form bulbs.
How do I know when to harvest my garlic?
Garlic, like most Alliuns, is ready to harvest when most of the foliage turns brown/yellow.: th-cam.com/video/A9qUN_FSCjg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zb8MVD4smjVJAVrt
Sweeeeeet ✊🏾😎🧄🧄🧄🧄🧄
Never enough Garlic!!! :-)
❤❤❤
At what point do you remove the hay from the garlic bed?
In cold climates, you remove a large mulch after last spring frost.....for me, mine just stays as a mulch layer and the garlic grows right through it.
Strange question, does garlic germinate on its own? My grandma used to have a prolific garden, but she got sick and couldn’t take care off it. The last couple years it has been neglected, but I have taken it over. I noticed garlic shoots growing, assuming it’s garlic, but it is in a very bizarre location. Can garlic grow without planting it in that location?
One season
Actually 4 seasons for the garlic I grow.
for ever if you have 100 of squirrels digging it up all the time.
Nooooooo......the worst! I actually had them AND rats messing with mine all winter.
Ah
I screwed up then
Most my garlic don’t have bulbs
Does that mean they are useless? Or will they still bulb
Where do you live? Most garlic won't bulb up for another two months
In the United kingdom
Not as cold as Canada
I really like the channel but can’t stand the constant roller coaster volume to the tone of how he speaks.
And the dizzying camera roller coaster too
