- Are you wondering what the best spacing is for growing garlic? The traditional approach is to go with 6" intervals. However, there is also an option to-do 6" Off Centre spacing which is much more dense. I wasn't sure if this would be too close for the garlic babies to thrive, so, I designed a spacing experiment and discovered some really interesting results!!

Hello Jordan. First ever of your videos I’ve come across was how to water garlic. So I went to your channel, I noticed no new videos in 7 months. I pray 🙏🏽 all is well in your world. ☺️

Thanks Carlos!!
I would love to hear more about companion planting
I'm glad I found your channel!!!! SUBSCRIBED!!!!!
Yessss! Thrilled to have you!
Thanks for the video. Yes please provide a companion planting video. Go zone 7b!
Woohoo! Where abouts are you??
Wonderful glad I just found you
Subscribed!!!
Btw...I LOVE your videos!
I’m planting now (late October) in MN. I’d love to hear how this turned out for you.
Can you please tell me when you will have more of the seed starting kits? I would love to start my fall garden soon! Thanks.
Super helpful!! What about watering over the winter especially if you plant your garlic in 5-10 liter pots? Thx in advance for any answer 👍😉
I've grown Red Russian garlic for the last 10 years, using my largest cloves from each harvest for planting for the next season's crop. I'm amazed at how identically I grow my garlic as you've recommended. Couple inches of compost on the top of my soil, sowing about the time of the first frost, then mulching with leaves and put some kind of cover over the leaves so they don't blow away.
No, I don't add worm castings to the sowing holes but sometimes I'll add a layer of worm castings to the compost on top of the soil before I sow.
Also, in early spring I'll remove the leaves until the soil thaws. Remarkably, I've noticed that garlic will start to grow and show sprouts even in frozen soil. Once the soil starts heating up and temperatures increase, I'll add leaves as a mulch until harvest time.
I liked your experiment planting on 6 inch diagonals. I think I'll try that this year to improve my yield. I also agree with your strategy of planting the larger cloves in each bulb. I found this a good approach after trying it after my second year of growing garlic. Planting bigger cloves definitely produces bigger bulbs.
Cheers and thanks for postng.
Wow! This is amazing! Loved reading all of that - and check out my video of checking if my garlic survived winter. I dug it up from under 1.5ft of snow and it had already sprouted and started to grow!
I'm zone 6a and I grow softneck because we braid them.
Love that!
My NAME IS CONNIE IM FROM STATEN ISLAND NY. PLEASURE TO MEET YOU. HAPPY PLANTING😊
Great to meet you Connie!!

Çok güzel bir bilgilendirme
it is still too warm to plant in NJ 7a.
Ah interesting! Hopefully it has cooled off now!
you should try a garlic called music. I grew some 2 years ago and live in zone 5b. grew big heads
I'll try to get my hands on some before planting!
@@MindandSoil I believe they were developed by a Canadian grower. I've tried them in the past and the heads are quite large with 7 or 8 cloves if I recall. You can get them from Westcoast Seeds.
Hi did you sow strawflower seeds before can you do a video about them or give me any tips I keep trying but they never germinate
I wanna know about the interplanting or companion planting. Have u done experiments on this concerning the size of each bulb? Do the garlic like growing in a patch with a bunch of other garlic or do they like better spread out with companion plants in between?
I haven't done any companion planting experiments yet - but this year I am going to do Garlic alongside Basil and tomatoes so follow along and I'll share the results!
I grow garlic with my roses.
@@bustedkeaton with better results ?
@@mattg6472 We companion plant sacrificial Onions amongst our
Brassicas. Sacrificial only because they get shaded out and don't
bulb up well. We do it to fend off cabbage moths. Not too far away
is an annual bed of Garlic. Zero cabbage moths, that don't just fly
on by. Haven't had any problems, Zero damage until last year. Last
year we got our brassicas planted late. Still maturing when we
harvested our Garlic. The moths moved in, in droves once the Garlic
was pulled. None seen this year, and no damage.
Hi Jordan, after planting and before adding mulch, do you water the soil? Thank you for all your great advice!
great question! I personally don't because it rains a lot in the Fall where I live but if you live somewhere dry then It wouldn't hurt to water! Check out our video on how to water garlic and you'll see what my thoughts are for watering garlic in the Fall, Spring, and Summer!
@@MindandSoil I should have checked your video list - I did watch it last year and forgot! I followed your advice and gave my bulbs worm castings and mulch after planting, followed by superfood and compost in spring and am very pleased with how big the garlic heads were this harvest. I am also going to try Music bulbs for next year. Thank you again!!
Where do your source your compost from? Also....great great video. Thank you so much for all this wonderful information!
Let’s see the companion video
i have heard that soft neck stores better than the hard one, is that true? great video btw
I have heard the opposite! Haha
Wow, amazing video. So you will just let the garlic bulbs stay underground over the winter and they won't grow until January when you lift the cover up?
That's right! Check out the video at the end of the video to see what they looked like at the end January this past winter :D
Hey brother just wondering why you havnt uploaded a new video in 5 months ?
Jordan ~ do you think it would be ok to substitute biochar for the vermiculite? Love your channel. Thanks for all your help in the garden.
It's not something I have tried so I can't speak from actual experience. But from a theory perspective my concern here would be that that amount of biochar would really increase the carbon in the bed, which would pull the nitrogen away from the plants and probably have them struggling. So, If I was in your shoes I would design an experiment where one part is 5% biochar, another set is 10% biochar, and the third is 25% biochar and see how eachof them does!
@@MindandSoil Thanks for taking the time ... I'll consider this ... I can't seem to find vermiculite in my area. But I must concur with your assessment.
@@MrsSunstoned I actually order mine via ULine! Take a look on their site and you can get a large volume at a good rate!
@@MindandSoil Thank you.
Hi Jason, please advise on watering garlic. Also, I heard a theory of soaking garlic in water, baking soda and kelp oil. Would you recommend that??
Thanks!
I'm not sure about the soak I haven't tried that before :)
Here is a video on watering!

What about watering throughout the winter? We dont get much rainfall.
Great question! Check out our video on watering garlic here: th-cam.com/video/gNHuKBYG0iU/w-d-xo.html
Do i need to water it when there is no snow
Hi, I live in Calgary Alberta, Canada. And I have some 5 gallon grow bags and would like to try growing some garlic in them because I don’t have very much ground space. My questions are, what and how would be the best way to grow garlic in the grow bags and what time of the year would best for me to do so?
How often do you have to replenish the vermiculite in your beds?
Would you recommend drip irrigation for garlic?
Yup absolutely! Drip irrigation is a great way to go as the amount that is overshot and/or lost to evaporation is so low
Watering ?
Why did you stop posting videos

Hi do you plant it the same way in zone 10B?
Jordan, I was planning to plant on October 15, but with the extended heat, I wonder if I should delay. Thoughts?
That's a great question! Either way works! You could get it into the ground on the 15th or by all means wait a week or two! There isn't any rush :)
I am in 9b and our fall is usually hot and dry, so we plant garlic right after Halloween.
What happened to this channel? No new videos for 5 months...
