- Hello everyone
Here I’ll cover how I grow my garlic, why I don’t plant in the fall and wait till spring. Using this method also gives me a second crop as I will replant mid summer!

I started mine on 2/18/23 based on this video, its working great so far! Its 3/19 and roots have formed.
Nice!!!
Shawn, you are very creative with your garlic growing but also with creating a small raised bed to border your garden. Raised beds do not have to be big to be effective. Excited to try this process as I missed getting garlic into the ground last fall. I actually had a few cloves come up from after my harvesting. Will do this process to fill in with new cloves.
Trust the process 😉
Thanks for watching
This was an excellent video. The best that I have seen on growing garlic. A great common sense approach and I’m glad you showed from start to finish. Loved seeing the results at the end.. Plus, I like the refrigerator idea much better than the freezer so that the cloves start with roots already!Also, it is great to know you can do it throughout the summer for successive crops. Great idea. I am going to do this. It means that I’m not too late for a crop this year doing it with your method. Thanks again so much!
Thanks for watching
Best video on planting garlic in the spring. Thanks so much. Seeing the results of the process gives me confidence to follow your method. Great job! Keep your videos coming!
You are very welcome
I started mine in the fridge and was wondering about the planting method thx for a great video.
I never thought about doing it like this,I've tried planting in late fall an over wintering but I like this way better.
Thanks for watching!
There are so many ways to grow garlic, but yours seems the best I'll try it. Thanks great video !
Thanks for watching!
You are very welcome !@@ShawnBauer
In my refrigerator I found garlic cloves inside of a glass container with a lid. They have a rooted! Roots are a tiny bit shorter than roots on garlic shown in this YT video.
I of course had not soil in my glass container. I’m going to plant them to see what happens! I’m excited about my mistake! Lol
@V. What were your results from your 'found' garlic?
Hope it worked!
You might need to tidy up that fridge.
Happened to me as well. I planted them and they developed leaves in record time, in early autum!!
Bro... this is genius!
Thanks for watching!
I am so happy to see this video! I have some garlic that I received in the mail on Oct. 15th. I put it in the refrigerator until I had the chance to plant it out in December or January (I'm in zone 8 in TX). But I think I could do this method with the soil and baggie in the refrigerator for another month before I plant them out so they can have the roots they need to get established in January. It doesn't get very cold during our winters--although we may get a big freeze or two before it's all over--but I think my garlic will have a chance to mature early if I try this method. Thanks SO MUCH for sharing this!!! 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for watching
I did like this weeks ago today there is a huge white flower growing at top tip. It is so pretty!
Beautiful! Thank you
Glad to have come across your video, so I’m a new subs and thanks for taking these very helpful and simple tips in planting 😇❤️
That is awesome! I'm in Minnesota and thought I'd missed my hope of any garlic because I didn't get them in the ground last fall!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Did you plant any? How're they doing?
@Daniel Fiore I planted 50 of the darn things, and not ONE of them came up! I was so disappointed.
@@royalicing8603 pshhhh. Probably missed a water. More gardening videos for you
I’m in Minnesota and I planted this spring, and so far they are looking beautiful.
Thanks for info
Excellent video! Thanks! We love garlic so definitely doing this!

You bet! thanks for watching
Cool thank you I will try right now
Hope you enjoy
Thank you
Thank you 🙏
Just put mine in the ground a few days ago and they sprouted out of the ground. It’s exciting!!!
Nice! Thanks for watching!
Nice tutorials!
Sleepless In The Carolinas thanks for watching!!
Hi Shawn! This was such an exciting way to grow garlic which I have never done before. I followed your instructions and my garlic has been in the fridge for 3 weeks now but I am not seeing any roots yet. Should I add some more water to the soil or should I stop being so impatient and leave them alone?!?!?! Thank you!
If the soil seems dry, yes add some moisture. It will take time so, give it a few more weeks. Thanks for watching
I'm just getting started with gardening so bear with me. What kind of soil did you use in the ziploc bag? Just curious because you got great results with the root system. Also, once its done drying in your garage, how do you store it? Thanks so much.
Hi Trina. It's just standard potting soil in the bags. Once dried out, we store them in a mesh type, open air bag and store in a dark area in our basement. Thanks for watching!
Love this!!!! What is your growing zone?
6... almost 7. Thanks for watching!
U asked my question and it was answered. I’m thankful For this.
I always just don't harvest it all and then divide up the bulbs that shoot up in spring
Nice idea
In warm climates hard neck garlic has to be vernalized in the refrigerator for 2 1/2 to 3 months or they will never bulb up properly. In zone 8B, I plant in November and harvest in May. FREEZING garlic will KILL it.
I live in Michigan too so your tutorials are so helpful since we are both in the same growing zone. I'm prepping my garlic to put in the fridge today & hoping for good results like you had. I have watched some tutorials & read some comments about squirrels & foxes digging up & eating peoples garlic. We have a lot of squirrels around here & I'm wondering if I'm going to need some type of protection to keep my garlic safe from critters. Have you ever had that kind of problem?
Only in the winter bc once the roots take hold they are in the ground pretty good. With that said I do have a fence around my garden but, that doesn’t keep squirrels out.
@@ShawnBauer Thank you!
very informative video.. i live in UK, Zone 9 area and gonna try this.. if i put it in the fridge this 2nd week of December, when can i transplant it outside? Thanks for your answer mate..
Anything after 8 weeks should do the trick. Good luck! Thanks for watching
@@ShawnBauer big thanks mate!
How do you know when to harvest? You might have mentioned it but I didn’t catch it. Thanks!!!
Typically when the bottom layer of the plant start to brown and showing signs of dying off is a good indicator.
Hi would freezer be ok? And if i put in freezer when i take out should leave in to room temperature or just put them straight to the grown.?
Perrya Gaji freezer is fine but you may not see any root growth like you see in my video. That’s ok. You can plant them right in the garden right out the frig or freezer.
@@ShawnBauer thank you so much.
I am a newbie and I rooted mine in 3 days by cutting the tips and letting them sit in a bag of dirt. They started rooting in 24 hrs and grew longer in 3 days. Just wondering if the fake winter thing is really necessary. It's April (Spring).
Unfortunately you’re most likely to get plant growth but no bulb effect that produces more clove’s. I’d shock them with cold for a least a month in the frig before planting
hey ow long did it take for them t grow?
They are ready to harvest in 80-90 days
@6:25 you mention it's been 2 1/2 months at time of harvest, but in the comments you say from planting to harvest is 4 months. Which is correct?
I included frig time when I said that by mistake. These are usually pulled around 2 and a half months of grow time.
Can I use a mason jar or plastic container? Instead of a bag?
Absolutely
These developed bulbs in only 2 1/2 months? Why do other growers plant in oct/nov and then harvest in July? Do the bulbs get that much bigger being in the ground for 9 months instead of 2 1/2 months?
That really depends on where you live. You plant in Nov to get a little root growth and get the cold weather needed. It will go dormant through the winter (just like in frig). It really won’t grow much at all until soil temps are up.
What type of soil do you use?
Any soil or even just sand. The cheapest you can find or the free stuff outside 😉
What area are you in? I think garlic won’t like the summers in Oklahoma . What do you think?
They sure will… just give them the proper winter simulation like the video shows. Good luck!
Do you get clove formation with this method?
Absolutely! That’s the point
That's what I was hoping you'd say. I'm going to give it a go myself then. Thanks for the video....
Thanks for watching! If you watch till the end of the video you will see the bulbs being dug up
@@jonking7345 they were fully mature with about 12-16 gloves per bulb. Been doing this for years….
From planting to harvest was how long please?
About 4 months.
@@ShawnBauer thanks
This is my first year gardening and I didn’t know about refrigerating the garlic before planting in the spring. I planted early march, do you think I’ll have edible garlic by fall? Or do you think I just learned a hard lesson?
If you still had cold night temps you’ll be fine
