What an adorable hound!
Oh, and thanks for the tutorial. It's much more in-depth than many I've watched.

[@Alisorganics]

She’s a funny girl. A bit of an attention hog!😅. Thank you!

[@heatherw3202]

This was very helpful. Thank you for showing it so slowly and clearly!

[@Alisorganics]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sparky-dg6885]

LOVE the dog! I've watched several tutorials and this one is by far the best.

[@Alisorganics]

Thanks so much 😊. Luna, my dog is a sweet heart and has to be with me EVERY place I go.

Yup I'm so glad to have stumbled onto your videos I've been wanting to learn how to braid garlic for awhile now I didn't think it was that easy

[@Alisorganics]

Welcome!! And they are so fun to do!

[@brandonmonroe7050]

That was the simplest way of explaining this I have seen so far AND no strings was needed. Nice. What variety of garlic was this the purple color is beautiful.

[@brandonmonroe7050]

Turban. I just restarted the video and heard it

[@Alisorganics]

The one I used is Basque Turban for this video. I love all the turban varieties. They all are striped, some purple, pink or even brownish purple.

Best braid video! Cheers from Sunny Alberta!

[@Alisorganics]

Thank you! Cheers from usually rainy Southern Utah!

[@leeannemacarthur46]

That was awesome, thank you so much. Will try this in October. Didn't know you can brade hard neck garlic. I am being brave this year and growing hard neck, soft neck and elephant garlic. I am a beginner but had a huge harvest last year on my first try. Thank Again. From Monbulk Victoria Australia 🇦🇺 ❤❤❤

[@Alisorganics]

Your welcome. I love braids in my kitchen. I look forward to doing them every year. Pure joy!

[@SusanMarziani]

I am getting ready for my first harvest of garlic (in Virginia Beach, VA) and this video is amazing (so is your pooch). Thank you for helping out a rookie.

[@Alisorganics]

We just had our annual garlic braiding class with the turban varieties. The braids are so pretty! And Luna pup has to be in the middle of everything I do! 🥰

[@royormonde3682]

Looks good, you didn't show how you tie it off in both examples.....I'm guessing you used string.

[@ashlynstackhouse]

Wondering the same

[@fergus247]

the garlic i buy in the store must not be very fresh because it start sprouting after a short while. should it not be kept in a dark place?

[@Alisorganics]

I’ve found a dark place doesn’t seem to matter. I hang my braids on the kitchen wall. I”ll store mine I save for replanting in our root cellar, and it doesn’t sprout. When it’s about 7-9 months old it’ll start to sprout. Store garlic is often shipped in refrigerated trucks and that tells the garlic it went through a winter and it’s time to sprout.
