I'd like to share something with you if I may. What you're doing with your farm is nothing short of a amazing. I'm gonna retire from what I do and this is what I want to do. I currently have my own little garden forming. I work hard on it daily and I absolutely enjoy every moment of it. I don't have much family support but if I was never inspired I most certainly am now. Thank you Mrs. H🤗🌱❤️
Can you show how you place the garlic to dry out and how you store it. Thank you
Baking a whole garlic is out of this world...soft and creamy and served on a good cracker!!!
I totally agree baking a garlic gives such a nice creamy spread for a nice cracker
Mrs. H, when I was growing up on the farm we called them females when they doubled/tripled like that. Not sure if there's another name for them, but we enjoyed and had plenty.😊
Please show us the next step after you have pulled up the garlic. Do you braid it or hang it or cut off the tops. Help!
I keep a small gardening note book and now as I get older and can't remember everything,. I write everything down. What row and variety is what. It really helps.
Everything in your gardens is beautiful! Those garlic bulbs look amazing!
Nearly every one of my garlic made multiple shoots this year. Six years growing and never had that happen before.
This made me smile for you. I've lost ALL my garlic. I have a lot of moles and voles and think they got it. I have the biggest groundhog I've ever seen. I named him Chubbs. We are fighting over my potatoes. My hubby cut his hair last night so I put it around my potatoes. My brother taught me that one. Greetings from Tennessee
I love the way you use leaves and stuff to build your soil. I have a friend who raises angus bulls and hes happy to give me truck loads anytime i want. That hiw i have built my main beds. But also, my husband dies dialysis at hime and i also have a glut of heavy duty cardboard boxes. I open them up and lay them between the beds and in places i dont want to walk in mud when it rains. I out them down in thr fall after cleaning out dead plants. Then around February or March, when im excited to get into the garden, i will lay more out. The cardboard was coming apart last week, so i laid down new cardboard to make a new clean path. You would not believe how much soft black soil it makes! I will go around a scoop it up when i needs to top things off or add back into the beds.
I love that you have given those retail shelves a second life in growing your groceries.
It's like poetic justice, wouldn't you say?
@@jillhumphrys8073 Yes!
Yes!
My garlic died this year because of the weather we had. Cold, hot , cold, warm and finally cold. By the time real cold got here in December my garlic was up about 4 inches.
What a beautiful garlic harvest you got.
We are in Florida. We grow inchelium red garlic and it smells and taste wonderful.
I'm wondering if those side shoots are the "CORMS"-(seeds) that garlic forms?? They usually form on the sides of the garlic and can be planted to make a new garlic plant. Some break off and get left in the soil & will grow as well.
Something that I do that I've not seen ANYONE else do when harvesting garlic is I cut the garlic bulbs off the stalks leaving approximately 2 inches of the stem on the garlic bulb. I do this with my onions, too. They both are laid out to "cure" and form the paper skins that protect the garlic. I then clean all the stalks, remove the dead parts then wash well. Then I chop the stems/leaves and dehydrate them to use in soups/stews or have even made leek/garlic-like soup from the larger white part of the stems. I always add garlic to my leek soup anyway and by using the white of the garlic stems gives a wonderful fresh garlic taste to the soup. By cutting off the stems (you've got to leave at least 2 inches of it on the garlic bulbs), did not affect the quality nor taste of my garlic bulbs/cloves and they cured as they should to form the paper skins.
I'm a senior on social security and can't afford to waste anything I can use for food so I tried it and it worked well so I continued to do it. I've been afraid to mention it on any YT channel fearing I would get crazy flack from people saying the stems/leaves HAVE to be left on for it to cure properly.
I'll even go one further. I also cut the roots off, leaving a bit on the bulb, wash them well, and cook with them, too. I've even dehydrated them to use later as you get a LOT of them with a large garlic harvest. They have a mild garlic flavor that is perfect in recipes if you want a garlic flavor that isn't overwhelming. I love garlic and use it in almost everything I cook. I was curious about eating/cooking with garlic roots so I looked it up on the internet. Would you believe that some chefs actually do use garlic roots in some of their special cuisines??? So I wasn't so crazy after all. I also looked up if you could cure garlic without the entire stalk/stem and YES YOU CAN. You just leave at least 2 inches of the stem on the bulb & cure. It is a lot of extra work to clean, wash & chop up all those stems but once you try the garlic/leek soup from the fresh garlic white stem or use a handful or two of the dehydrated stems/leaves in a soup or stew, you will never let another one go to waste by leaving them on the bulb to cure. Look it up. It is on the internet as well as using garlic roots to cook with.
For the new gardeners out there, if you leave your garlic in the ground too long it will rot, especially if you have a lot of rain in the spring like we do here in coastal AL. I left a few smaller garlic in the ground hoping they would grow a bit more when I harvested what was ready and they didn't grow any more and the bulb ROTTED or was soft, mushy & unusable. The stem was still there but pulled right out of the rotted bulb. I discovered the smaller garlic were the small cloves that I planted (as I said earlier, I don't like to waste anything) and they just don't grow as big as the larger cloves. Now I know 1st hand why people say to choose & use the largest of the cloves to plant...because they give you the largest garlic bulbs at harvest
Thank you, Mrs. "H" for a great video! I ALWAYS look for all new videos you put up. Even tho I've gardened over 30+ years, I ALWAYS learn something new & beneficial from you & Mr. "H"! Love y'all!
Good Afternoon Niece And Nephew ❤❤❤
Hey Auntie 💕
Tongue depressors. Write on them and stick in the garden. If you need bigger, make your own. Or, number your beds on the outside of them. Then record in a journal. If you try hardneck, be sure to try the scapes. 😊
What is scrapes?
I am glad I am not the only one who calls the veggies by other names while gardening. Our brains are working and thinking on the next thing we want to do so our tongues get confused or at least thats what i tell myself. Giggle.😊
Blessings double n triple garlic
Thank you, because not you two, I grew garlic thisbyear, planted October/November time. A good few came up after -11 this past winter with -33-40 wind chill temps. I saw a couple of brown lower leaves non a few today and cut them off, lol. So glad you recordedbthis. Now I know to leave it be and pull when they get 2-3 dead leaves. Thank you for idea of planting sweet potato in that space. I have slips started so will plant them when or just before the garlic is pulled. What a blessing you are😍😍😍
I forget too! I bought a digital file off ETSY for a garden journal/diary. It has been awesome. I print the pages off my own computer and put that days gardening information and I purchased a Homestead digital file and keep track of my chickens and other farm animals. Information like immunization for the dogs…worm medicine for the dogs and even my chickens. It has a page for types of issues that come up on a homestead and how you solved or not solved the problem so that next year you have something to look back on…Garden issues, Milk issues, animal issues, canning issues , freeze drying etc…just about anything that comes up on a homestead. It only cost 6.00…that was a sale price…there are more less expensive digital file journals and even greater price ones…pick what you need.
😍 I planted some, covered it w/wood chips last winter...they grew so fast and well, until they allll died at 3/4 months. Oooh how sad I was. Nice harvest Mrs H!!!
Thank You so .uch for explaining things for us new Gardeners. I helped my Mom do a backyard garden as a kid...but that was like 30 Years ago......OUCH! (I am 45 heh) ...so am relearning SO MUCH. 90% from you and Mr H! I got home to tend my garden beds last night and something uprooted one of my freshly planted cabbage starts!!! The fence goes up tomorrow after work. LoL !!!
Hello @P&T Creations...That's me also....did it as a kid (more years ago than you) but I am gardening this year and this kind of information is golden!. Have a great harvest!
Great harvest, can you show how to store them. thanks for sharing!
I can smell the goodness all the way here in Oklahoma!!!
Ok time to pull my garlic! Good harvest!❤️❤️🙏🏾🐩👊🏾🌹
New subscriber. I’m 57 years old and have only had one garden in my lifetime. Thank you for sharing (teaching) and showing us the process. I’ve been watching and learning from your videos.
I’m doing a vertical planter this year as I live in a townhouse. I’m hoping to get a house with some property next year and start a homestead.
Mrs H, your garden is beautiful! I still have some planting to do. I'll be working on that tomorrow and Friday. Right now I'm finishing up canning chicken and pork. Tomorrow night I'll finish up the pork and I'm making more lentil soup to can. I'm also wanting to can some 16 bean soup mix with polish sausage, onions, tomatoes, and peppers.
I hear your mole deterrent buzzing in the background! Those are wonderful. I’ve been using mine for over a year. But boy oh boy you move it away for a day and you get those rascals back. Loving the garlic harvest. You were certainly blessed.
I have these too and love them! I dont even hear the noise anymore when I'm in the garden! 😊
So soothing watching this video. I love listening to the birds and chickens. I am wishing I could have a garden.
Try sprouting alfalfa sprouts and other sprouts from seeds. You can do it on your countertop or windowsill and soil isn't needed.
Think about vertical gardening. You'd be surprised what can be grown in a small area, even in the corner of your livingroom.
Thank you for putting your videos out there, especially this one. You all are a joy to watch. The videos and the tips are very helpful. This year my garlic came in strong, 100% production.
I absolutely love harvest time!! Thank you for taking us along! Happy Feast Day if Our Blessed Virgin Mary and Mother of our Church! && Happy Memorial Day!❤❤❤❤
Howdy from East Texas! Wonderful garlic harvest Ms H. I’ll try to plant garlic in a container. Blessings to you and Mr H
You might also find different garlic varieties at a local farmers market
Thank you Mrs. Heart. I would love to be able to do an internship at your homestead. You have so much that you can teach us. Thank you for all you do. Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend and Memorial Day.
I've been watching your channel for a very long time. Idk why but it just showed I was unsubscribed? I thought I was subscribed. You a ways come up on my feed. Well I resubscibed!! I live in Arizona and it gets HOT 🔥 here. You inspired me last year to get growing! I have some injuries that prevents me from digging in the ground so went planting into containers. Last year I harvested at least 50 eggplants! But I failed miserably growing the squash. Then I watched yours and saw how large they can get. I was putting FOUR plants in each pot causing the squash to be stunted. This year im at it again with ONE plant per pot and they are huge! Growing them vertically with tomato cages. No bugs! Zilch. But like you I had issues with eggplant this year. THANK YOU for showing all of us that we too can do this! I did get so inspired that this year I went into the ground with many veggies, potatoes and onions, and more. It was hard but its so nice. This is great! I call it EDEN2 !! I walk through it several times everyday thanking God for his blessings. Wait til we get to heaven and have the most perfect gardens! You will join me for lunch! Pick a perfect peach too!! Blessings my brother & my sister H. Many blessings and many thanks 😊 🙏
I love your videos! I harvested my first-ever garlic crop this year. I was very excited and cannot wait to plant it again
Lol you said broccoli instead of garlic when talking about the worms. I got a giggle out of that. Love you sister in Christ, just keep going.
Hello Mrs. H, your garlic is so big and beautiful, I'm going to try again to plant some, mine didn't do good, but my onions are doing great, thanks for the video, 🙏🏽God bless
Beautiful garlic; I actually harvested some of mine this morning. Keep growing the groceries! 🙂
Great Garlic Haul. 💜💜💜 AuntieEllen 👍🏽
Always enjoy your videos. They are helpful for this newbee. Thank you
What do you mean cure? Then what
Those garlic bulbs are so fat and pretty! I can't wait to harvest mine, in a little bit of a colder region so I probably have another month but they grew pretty fast here too. . It looks like you let the soil be pretty dry before harvesting. I'll have to remember that this year, it looks way easier. I had some garlic cloves at another spot that apparently I forgot and they were bunched together and grew to look like scallions. Apparently they're also delicious that way so it will be exciting to try them in cooking. Thank you so much as always for sharing.
Save your best garlic clones to plant during next Fall. But before replanting them in that garden spot I would apply an entire bale of peat moss and work it into the soil to make it more porous and light so that the garlic can develop each clove more full and even. Very nice. I love growing garlic because once it is in the ground it pretty much takes care of itself all Winter and into Spring.
Oh wow Mrs. Heart that an amazing harvest garlic 💯 Thanks for sharing 🙏💜
I started growing garlic from store bought ...planting several cloves..but having fun with this experiment. I love your gardening approach and knowledge of 'how'....
Please...tell me how to plant from grocery garlic. I want to start that way.
@@el_israel60 : actually, it's so easy that it's a bit embarrassing.. I take a garlic and break away several cloves, remove the paper and keep the pointy part upward, let it grow...haven't harvested yet, but, they have sprouted greens...look like scallions. Sometimes I have found that my store garlic sits too long in my crock and starts a green growth...so, it's a jump start for a plant. This is my first year trying this..will know probably in a few months...just a fun thing to do. Also plant my 'white ends' of scallions..already have roots when you buy them..all planted and now I harvest easily for additions to my dishes and platings....free groceries!!
@@dianebergschneider4028 Thanks! I'm starting this tomorrow. Happy growing!!!🤗
Beautiful Harvest👍🏽
This is a BEAUTIFUL abundant harvest!! This is another thing that I need to hurry up and get into the ground so that hopefully, in due season, we'll be able to stock up on garlic as well.
I'm in Canton GA north of Atlanta I grow elephant garlic and it grows great. It is a cross between garlic and leeks. I use the same bed and rarely have to replant. The babies come off the garlic at harvest and comes up as beautiful bulbs the next year. All I do is mulch and harvest.
Mrs. H: The second growth you are experiencing may have been caused by weather conditions where you get a few very warm days in the winter then another cold spell or by uneven rain. When we have crazy weather it fools the plants into thinking it is spring and then winter too close together. It may also be caused by waiting a little too long to harvest. I have experienced something similar in my keeping onions for storage. The harvest looks really good enjoy it.
I planted my garlic watching your video, and they look the same. I thought it would be at least another month. In VA and probably in the next few weeks
Oh my goodness, I got so excited watching you harvest your garlic. Your videos are awesome.
I harvested my garlic this week, too. It was putting off baby garlic starts too! I will plant those this fall.
Your gardens are beautiful
thankyou mrs B
Hi Homestead Heart, You and Mr. H are such a joy to watch and learn from in the gardening adventure. Thank you for the presentations and hard work that will pay dividends for future generations.
I always save the biggest and best bulb for the next planting season of garlic. Started out with a grocery store bought bulb years ago and have seen an increase of size and flavor over the years as my soil improves. It turned out to be a soft neck variety. I have a fact sheet printed out from our online County Extension office (free of charge). It has the instructions for recommended variety, soil prep, how/when to plant and harvest/storage for our grow zone(7a and 7b). We live right at the middle of those 2 zones. Every state has a County Extension office they can tap into for great info about their grow zone(s).
I tried the hard neck variety once(also grocery store bought), but the soft necks do so much better here.
Awesome harvest
I love the sounds around you..the birds…the rooster…it’s so relaxing. Make a video of jus those sounds
Thanks for the tutorial. I was doing it all wrong so that's why I am unsuccessful with garlic and onion.
I ordered seeds from your seed store. when they all come in I'm going to order some more. I love your little seed store.
Thanks Mrs Heart this is truly news we can use! 💜
Great gardener you are!!!
Admiring all of that beautiful garlic 🧄🧄🧄
yes this year im going bigger . I doin square foot gardening. getting more variety in small space
Congratulations on your great garlic harvest❤️
I just love the fact that you show us how to work the garden. It really helps us beginners out. 🙂
Nice garlic harvest! Wtg! ❤😊
Absolutely the cutest lady ever, love their lifestyle.
My late husband and I have always gardened...healthier and a cost saver..but, just so fun...my adult kids have no interest and prefer buying Whole Foods 'crap'..paying mega..ugh!
Very informative!!!! Thanks!!!👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
I'm so amazed by your garden love to see you when it's harvest time . I'm growing some collards in a pot and pineapples but that's it. I've tried garlic but I think my container was too shallow. Thanks for the lesson on your soil mix. Blessing Mrs H
Love your channel you are a good teacher I've learned things I didn't know thanks for sharing
I’m growing Inchelium Red this year. That garlic is so dang good. I couldn’t believe the flavor difference. I was gifted seed last year, but I will be ordering more myself from Filaree Farm this year. Glad it was shared because I had no idea how quickly garlic sold out as a new gardener. Not sure what other variety I’d like to try as well, but. this year, I will order early.
Going to try to plant my own in containers. First look that hard. Thank you Mrs. H
I have a solution draw a chart of what u planted like a Lil map of your garden and laminate it
Just to let you know once the garlic bulbs are dry you can wright on the dry paper the name so when you plant it again you the name of it I forget what TH-cam channel I learned this from but it is very helpful
Thanks Ms. H & Mrs. H 5-28-2023👍🏽👍🏽❤
Wow that’s a great harvest. My garlic were a no show 😢
Keep a journal to document the varieties and locations planted. I enjoy watching and learning from you and Mr. H.
I just love your channel! Blessings! I live in the mountains of Utah, 7,000 ft above sea level and I planted 350 cloves of hard neck garlic in November. In fact we had 7” of snow last week but it’s in the 70’s now and the garlic is exploding nicely. Last year I did 120 garlic and it was so successful so I’m over did it this time. Curing is key.
Bravo👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Mine never get that big without shooting out the flower stalk. Too many of mine ended up with that one small single bulb.
That's only 5 months
Time is SPED UP for sure.
That rosemary tho 😮!!! So beautiful and big !!!
Yep I have to get mine out also, wish I had as many as you do but a lot of mine never came up I did soft and hard neck and my hard neck didn’t do at all. Beautiful big harvest Mrs H
I Lord, it sounds soooo delightful outside in Georgia! JESUS, Thank YOU!🙌🏾☝🏾✝️👑 6:54
I harvested mine today. I planted elephant garlic. I plan on fermenting some with honey , some cooking and some to plant this fall.
It may look funky, but I bet it will taste good all the same.
Hi, Homestead Heart! I'm fairly new to your channel but I've watch a handful and I'm Loving it!!! I was thinking about your dilemma of not knowing what variety of garlic that you planted in your raised beds. If you begin each planting season with a Grid Paper Notebook 📒, you could take it out with you when you go to plant the bulbs/seeds etc. Just draw a rectangle, 1 square by 2 squares, to represent your raised bed. Write down the variety on the lines below or in side margin. Also, you could give each raised bed a # number. It would keep you more organized and you wouldn't have to rely on your memory! The following year you could look back in the notebook and rotate your crops, knowing what you had planted there the prior year! 👍🏼😃😉
I just ran out to check on my baby garlics. 😊
Your garden is sooo beautiful!! I planted garlic for the girst time in Oct ( zone 6a) and will be ready in July....but maybe June from the looks of things haha
Great 👍 love 💕 the Harvest Mrs.H.........
Becky on Arce Homestead uses her plant video to keep track of what variety she planted where.
You are such a good example for me. Watching your videos has helped me so much. Thank you.
Mrs H, I love planting and growing my own groceries. I been picking carrots and potatoes now I am waiting on my Beans to finish growing I get so excited when I grow Anything waiting on my ginger to finish growing . ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love your content!! Love your motto!!!
Mrs. H.: I love your videos they always warm my heart. You let us know it is ok to be human, like the comment about not remembering variety names of plants.
Job well done. First week of June or sooner I harvest 1k 🧄🧄🧄🧄🥰👍🎉 Our work is neverending. My work is my play. I love growing food too. Love for everyone.
Great job Mrs. H
When we plant ours in October/November, we place about 6 inches of straw over them. After the scapes come on, we remove those and feed and water really good and wait until July to harvest. This year we fed with 10-10-10 every 4 weeks. Ours are still going strong here in PA.
That is a beautiful harvest. I’m new to garlic. Thank you ❤
I was watching the cardboard potato haul and did a search ( I remember watching you plant those red potatoes). Then searched and found this. Ran to my small garlic bed and ended up pulling them all immediately per your advice on the look of lower stem leaves. Mine are small with scapes. Imma work with these and try again next season. My first, won't be my last time 😊😊
