Our 2 year old son has just harvested the last carrots of the year, he loves it in the garden 🙂 Also he independently recognised a volunteer lettuce, and said 'lettuce' amid the spinach patch! Made me so proud. We're planting garlic today. These are invaluable lessons I'm so happy to be able to teach my son ❤🥬🍅🥕
Great way to start kids eating healthier and teaching them to be self-sufficient. My nephew started by planting seeds with my mom at 2 years old, and loved to pick vegetables for his soup. He always ate all his veggies growing up.
He'll remember that and it'll stay with him throughout his lifetime. I grew up that way. Learning so much just by watching, helping. I'm thrilled that he already knew the lettuce from the spinach! ❤
Hey James , have you ever planted the small little cloves of garlic an grown them very close together. Pull them when they get the size of a green onion . They are great . Just chop them up like you would a green onion an you have the garlic flavor for stir fry or soups an stew.
Precious Tuck ♥ ! Zone 4 Canada, planted 210 cloves this fall. Half on Sept 30 and half on Oct 3. Cultivars are : Majestic, Susan Delafield, Great Northern, Red Rezan. We like garlic.
Inchelium is pronounced inch-el-ee-um, I live in Washington where that variety was discovered here in the small town of Inchelium located on the Colville Indian Reservation that I am from. It is a great garlic. We are growing it here too, as well as a couple hardneck varieties that are Spanish Roja and Romanian Red. I love your channel, a lot of great information every video. Thank you.
Is it too early to plant it in the Seattle area? It's been down to 29 degrees a couple times but typical weather will be mid-30s and above except for some cold fronts.
I mulch them with straw, and in the spring the garlic shoots right through the straw to grow healthy bulbs. The straw keeps the weeds out through the summer growth.
Yes Tuck is enjoying his carrots. So adorable. Wonderful you help him get his snacks from the garden. So cute! Thanks for the Garlic planting tips! Hope you have a great harvest of big tasty Garlic in June or July!
By the way, the garlic scapes are delicious when sauteed or used as garlic is used, and gives an early garlic flavor while you're waiting for the bulbs to develop. So it's somewhat worthwhile in my estimation to let it grow but not to get even close to flowering.
Here on Vancouver island last night, as the tradition goes, we celebrated Thanksgiving with friends. We had a nice dinner where we shared with each other our vegetables, berries and fruits in delicious various recipes. It was a feast! Everything, but the turkey, came from our gardens. Thank you for your great gardening lessons, James. They inspired me and my husband all kinds of planning in our backyard. Plus, your abundant joy overflows in our gardens :-) God bless you!
Hi James and Tuck, I have just found your channel and I love it. Tuck is an amazing little friend and so well loved by you and you can tell he adores his daddy. I really hope I can try some of your advice soon we live in zone 7 in Alabama. You have a very pleasant voice and a great teacher. Thank you so much from Bama
Just found your videos a couple days ago. You and Tuck are inspiring to Phantom pup and I. Btw; it’s “Inch-uh-Liam.” At least according to the town about an hour north of me in Washington State.
I love your shows! Very informative - I learn something new every time! I love your energy and enthusiasm, and I also love Tuck, your garden Snoopervisor. ❤️ 🪴 📚
Since I love fresh garlic so much it makes economic sense to grow my own. Recently I tried fermenting some in raw honey. Great stuff for chest congestion. My favorite snack is grated cheddar with mayo, at least one crushed clove (depending on the amount of cheese). I add some Italian seasoning. Makes a great spread on saltines. Now and then I mix in some sriracha when in the mood for spice.
Have been planting my garlic by the full moon in October for the last 20 years. Over 200 head a year with 98% germination. Both hard neck and soft neck. Mulch with shredded leaves. Usually see sprouts around mid November and they do not die back.
Thanks James for suggesting intercropping with tomatoes. That's exactly whaayt I'm going to do. My tomato bed is jst waiting to be mulched now it'll have something planted in it . Watch out. as I might make a video of it.
I planted some organic soft neck garlic that I bought from my local grocery store. I went organic because I heard the other garlic could be treated to prevent growth so not to grow in the store. They have small green stems popping up about 2 inches tall. This was my first time. I can't wait for spring. I hope I get lots of garlic to share.
I'm thinking about trying garlic in a grow bag- figure it can't hurt to try! Wish me luck! Thanks for the smiles I get just watching Tuck munch on carrots in the garden😀!
Great garlic session. Thank you. I'm up in the greater Ottawa area. Zone 4. My hard neck, 'Music', if dried well for 5-6 weeks, keeps until July of the following season as long as it is stored at room temperature in paper bags and in the dark. It is wonderful stuff; 4-6 cloves per head. It goes in Oct. 20th, top knuckle deep, in compost, topped with leaf mulch. A-1.
I just started growing garlic for the first time this year! I'm also in NJ, and can't wait to see how if they grew well, and to use some fresh garlic in my cooking.
Worth noting that scapes can be eaten. Stir fry seems to be the usual suggestion. But don't leave it too late to remove them or they'll become tough & fibrous and most unpalatable. I know from experience; I'm not going to leave them until too late next year.
I plant hardneck here in NH. German varieties and Music are my favs. I put in 116 cloves a cpl weeks ago. Mulched with ground leaves and grass clippings. Now, back to chorin.
40+ years ago I obtained garlic from an old man whom I rented from.....his father had brought it to the U.S. when he emigrated from the Czech Republic in the early 1900's. It is of the hardneck kind and originally came from the steppes of Russia. I always fall plant and have had the garlic winter over to less that -40F and still produce a very fine crop of bulbs. If I give people some, they will always be back as they cannot find anything to compete with it. It has reddish-purple skin and a very distinctive flavor. I always have to be sure to have enough to put in come fall. I would hate to lose that cultivar.......I don't know where I could go to replace it. Thanks for the upload. Hi Tuck!! P.S. I just pulled the last of my radishes here in Kansas and there are still carrots and spinach looking good.
🌺I just love watching Tuck eat his veges, He’s the sweetest little guy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for this garlic video, am getting ready to plant mine in a week
loved the carrot munching episode....my two dogs get a carrot every night...planted some garlic two days ago in my raised beds. hope they grow. it's my first try. :)
James thanks for sharing the way to plant garlic I tried many times but they all died few months later I am living in Amelia's Ward linden town Guyana south America we have rain and Sun 🌞 I will try your way off preparing the bed then plant thanks for sharing you and tuck your pal let us keep planting ☺️
My favorite time of the year, because we get to sow garlic cloves! Total magic! I’m always curious to know who’s doing the camera work, maybe we can meet them? Love Tuck! xo
Never grown garlic and this video gave me a terrific variety of information. My dogs are veggie lovers also. Tuck needs a little quality control jacket and a clipboard to carry around making notes. He's precious.
Should mention that the scapes from the hardneck garlic are edible, and delicious. We gather them up and throw them in the food processor to make compound butter to store in the freezer. Scapes are the reward for growing garlic, for us. You can only get them from growing yourself, or from farmer's markets.
I am trying both hard & soft neck garlic this year too. I love your idea to plant between the tomatoes. That's my plan now. Thanks for the idea. Oh my gosh....Tuck is so adorable. Love his little ears and how they perked up when you mentioned a snack. He is just amazing. Glad he loves the garden just as much as we do. Thanks for sharing. 💗💗 for Tuck. Be well. Stay safe, James. 🌻💗🌻💗
We continue to learn so much by watching you. I really enjoy that sometimes it is about the gardening, sometimes making own soil, sometimes its building something (loved the pallet to raised bed). I'm starting to realize that what you are teaching us is about a lifestyle and I really appreciate that. Love you and Tuck - hope he's feeling better. Hearts for him! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Great video, thank you. That’s the first time I’ve seen someone clearly explain hard neck and soft neck garlic and how to grow it. I now realise I’ve been planting my garlic way too early, hoping for those tall green shoots to come before winter sets in, then watching them suffer in snow and ice. I’ll change it up next year.
Thank you heaps of info. It is warm here and we dont get much of a frost. Thanks for the info on cold. Will hold off planting until winter kicks in and put in crisper like the tulip bulbs. Worth a try.
I really love the scapes. Great to add to salads and soups and stir fries. I have a 4x4 bed that has Thyme and Parsley . I let the Parsley go to seed. Raise it mainly for the bugs and birds.
Thank you James, since I’ve found your channel you’ve been a reliable reminder for my own Jersey garden tasks. Today’s a great day to get my garlic in too. Thanks from Tom’s River :)
I just love your videos. I love how tuck is always involved. Your a good pet owner. thanks for all your information. I have told many about your videos. thanks for all you and tuck do.
Planted my first garlic rows 2 weeks ago (organic store bought though). Thanks for sharing about leaving a space for tomatoes. I’ll do that next time. Tuck & his 🥕🥕 🥕 is the highlight of the show!
This past season I planted garlic around the perimeter of the bed so I could plant a few potatoes in the center come spring. It appears the garlic did defend the potatoes from the gophers. I intend to do it again in a few weeks after the last of the potatoes come up.
I grow hard neck mostly for the scapes. After harvesting the flowers I make a scape pesto in a food processor and freeze it in a cube tray . Once i grow a variety I like I put aside the biggest bulbes for planting. That way the garlic gets naturalized . I haven't bought seed garlic in a few years .

Tuck and his carrots! I could watch him all day.
Your garden tutorials are fantastic, but watching Tucker enthusiastically eat fresh garden veg is pure joy!
Little tuck really makes the video..He’s just so lovable cutest little thing ever🙋🏿♀️🙋🏿♀️..Thanks for the video I learned a lot..🙌🏽🙌🏽
A quick way to separate hardneck garlic: hit the neck on a hard surface and the root end will pop off. Thank you for your videos 😊
Who’s here for the first 10 seconds of intro energy I love it!!!
Precious Tuck ♥ ! Zone 4 Canada, planted 210 cloves this fall. Half on Sept 30 and half on Oct 3. Cultivars are : Majestic, Susan Delafield, Great Northern, Red Rezan. We like garlic.
have to keep those vampires away :)
He bites the tip to "get down to the sweet stuff". He IS the sweet stuff! I love your dog!
Tuck is just the cutest little guy. What a great little helper in the garden!

I love wen tuck harvests his own veggies!

I love your enthusiasm and expertise! I watch 5 or 6 different garden channels on TH-cam and you are by far my favorite! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Frankie that means a lot to me and Tuck my friend ❤️
Me too! ❤❤
Tuck for President ! 🐶🐾 🤘😀👍
I second that!
Love that Tuck enjoys the garden as much as you.
Your gardening tips are always great, but little Tuck steals the show! I love your sweet dog.
By the way, the garlic scapes are delicious when sauteed or used as garlic is used, and gives an early garlic flavor while you're waiting for the bulbs to develop. So it's somewhat worthwhile in my estimation to let it grow but not to get even close to flowering.
Tuck makes me SMILE!
Me too, I would be lost without the little guy! 🐕❤️
I try and plant after the first frost, Im thinking in my region of Vancouver Island BC Canada, it won't be cold until after Halloween, unfortunately
Here on Vancouver island last night, as the tradition goes, we celebrated Thanksgiving with friends.

Tucks ears and carrot crunching is irresistible. ❤️
I just love how tuck enjoys fresh vegetables.
Hi James and Tuck, I have just found your channel and I love it. Tuck is an amazing little friend and so well loved by you and you can tell he adores his daddy. I really hope I can try some of your advice soon we live in zone 7 in Alabama. You have a very pleasant voice and a great teacher. Thank you so much from Bama
Just found your videos a couple days ago. You and Tuck are inspiring to Phantom pup and I.
Btw; it’s “Inch-uh-Liam.” At least according to the town about an hour north of me in Washington State.
James and Tuck, everything in the garden looks easy when you explain it! Love Tuck!! 💖🐾🐾
Long live Tuck! Everything must be Tuck-approved!
Agreed!!!
I love your shows! Very informative - I learn something new every time! I love your energy and enthusiasm, and I also love Tuck, your garden Snoopervisor. ❤️ 🪴 📚
So far you have had the best information on planting garlic. Tuck is such a good dog and has a healthy diet with all those vegetables that he eats.
"Whaaat's going on!"...lol...you crack me up every time with your cheerful greeting! Love your idea, I will try it next year.
Sometimes I rewind it a few times, especially if he does the little hop with it... makes my day
@@tinkalinks lol a Jersey thing

I love planting the smallest garlic cloves for the continuous harvest of their greens! :D
Tuck in the carrots snacking is too cute! Thank you so much for the garlic planting video..learned a lot!🙏
It's really enjoyable seeing you working around the garden with those lovely plants.
Glad to hear that Sang Mai Thanh, me and Tuck love sharing what we are doing in the garden!
I'm thinking about trying garlic in a grow bag- figure it can't hurt to try! Wish me luck! Thanks for the smiles I get just watching Tuck munch on carrots in the garden😀!
I love gardening with my 2 shih tzus. Loved watching him eat his carrots
We planted our first batch of garlic this year. Thanks for sharing!
Let's Gooo! You will be happy next summer you put the investment in this fall

Great idea
We love Tuck!!!
👑🐕❤️
Lol, I’ve never seen so many encouraging videos,
Scapes are good for soups, broccoli and Stilton my favourite
Wow I'm subscribing specifically for the bonus pup
10/10 very informative, I love Tuck
You guys never fail to make me smile! Yes James, you and Tuck! Love ya both :)

So cute 😍 gardening dog
I’m super intrigued about the idea of growing garlic among the tomatoes!
I live in Northern Ohio. I learned that garlic can be planted from mid Oct till about a week before thanksgiving in November.
Oh just love Tuck!! I wish my kids would eat fresh vegey''s! Thanks!
I found that when my children helped plant, grow, and harvest vegetables in our garden, they couldn't wait to eat them! Try it!
Really enjoy your instructional videos. You are so sweet to tuck. Thank you.
Nice too see an American living in the British Channel Islands doing such good gardening
I love this channel, you get to the point & have a lot of good information & enthusiasm. Thank you!
Thanks, James, for your timely garlic tutorial. As always, worthwhile info presented in a fun, easy format. And TUCK!
😁🐕❤️
Hi... Tuck... You so cute... With Daddy James
Good Luck

Planted my first garlic today due to your inspiration! Loved watching Tuck!
Brilliant 😁🤗 I really adore Tuck
Thanks Kerry! Me too, he is the star of the show! 🐕❤️
Great video. Loved little Tuck eating the carrots.
Here in AZ we put it in the fridge for 6-8 weeks.
I just love your videos. I love how tuck is always involved. Your a good pet owner. thanks for all your information. I have told many about your videos. thanks for all you and tuck do.
I am in love with your pup, Tuck. What a great garden buddy! ❤️

Great idea!! Those ground hogs mess with my veggies all the time along with holes and trails. I will try this! Thank you for sharing your tip!!
We’ve just planted garlic yesterday 🧄 great tips 👍
Let's Gooo!
Great video thanks from London England 👍
I grow hard neck mostly for the scapes. After harvesting the flowers I make a scape pesto in a food processor and freeze it in a cube tray . Once i grow a variety I like I put aside the biggest bulbes for planting. That way the garlic gets naturalized . I haven't bought seed garlic in a few years .
