Hi Misilla, I am growing California Soft Neck and I cannot wait to give it a try. I grew some 2 years ago and it was soo good. :)) They were small bubls, but I think it may have made it taste better. Don't know, but I will find out this year.
Rainbow Gardens Love the strong flavor of garlic! Baked a few cloves and it was so good naturally caramelized!
I love garlic! It makes everything really flavorful and its super good for you! Plus my favorite food is Italian so go figure. I got so much work done outside today, the garden is almost ready for the final steps before planting, I'll send you some pics soon!
Zach Siltanen Me too! Love garlic on everything :) I got so much done as well and I'm pooped now! Lol...I wanted to get as much as I could since it's going to raining again...today was a perfect day to work outside :)
Indeed!
Wow! They are gorgeous! I am in zone 6b. so a little limited.
Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome and thanks for watching!
That's beautiful garlic! I'll have to find some of that :) I'm planting garlic for the first time and it's nearly spring, I'm excited to try it! Glad I found your channel!
Thanks for stopping by. From experience I've found that it's best to plant garlic in the fall for best results. I hope you given it a try this fall. Happy gardening! Misilla
This is awesome Misilla I can't wait to see how they grow! I really want to try planting at least one garlic and ginger to see how they turn out.
Thank you for all your wonderful tips and advice :)
Amanda C. Thank you back Amanda! My ginger is growing and the leaves smalls so gingery :) Best time for planting garlic is the fall...it helps with clove formation! Have a good day :) Misilla
I have never grown Garlic and really need to give this a shot, thanks for inspiring me Misilla! I will share the video over at Happy House & Garden for you!
Happy Gardening
Marty Ware
martysgarden Glad you found this helpful Marty! Thanks so much for watching and for sharing the video! Misilla
Your very welcome, I really enjoy all your videos and learn plenty as well!
Thanks for the video! For the first time ever, the winter killed off some of our garlic bulbs. I think I'll see about planting some more very soon. Thanks.
OneYardRevolution Oh no! Did you mulch them heavily? It was a cold winter for us this year....so I mulched the garlic bed with 6 inches of dried leaves. Hope they so better next season for you!
Learn To Grow I did mulch with several inches of leaves, but not heavily enough in some areas. It got as cold as -26 F, which is much colder than it has been in many many years. Next winter, I'll add even more mulch! :D
Cool. Thanks for this information. I will try to plant more garlic now too. THanks for the tip. Thats Italian garlic is massive!
superslyfoxx1 You're welcome :) I planted more surrounding my leafy greens to deter insect pests too! I hope the Italian does well, they are big and beautiful, has purple stripes within the skin :) Thanks for watching! Misilla
I planted garlic in a raised bed last fall. They have been a no show this spring. It was one of the coldest winters that we have had with the frost line going down 7 feet. I was wondering if I can get away with a spring planting. Thanks for sharing! Happy Mother's Day!
dakotabob10 Hi, yes plant them right now. Hardneck garlic does better in cooler climate, so plant a softneck variety. Next fall, mulch your garlic bed with at least 6 inches of dried leaves, straw or whatever you use. We had a cold winter as well down to the teens unusual for us! Thank you very much for the greeting by the way! Hope you get them planted soon!
Take care! Misilla :)
Thanks, very helpful
Hi Charlie, You're welcome. This is an old video. If you plant garlic in spring they will most likely not divide into cloves, but you can still havest the garlic rounds. Thanks for watching!
@@LearnToGrow1 I did put my garlic cloves in the freezer in some dirt, hopefully that will help
Loved the dog clip at the end!
Uncle Andy Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! Misilla
Hey, Misilla. I am growing garlic (California softneck) for the first time and came across your video. It was informative and I look forward to seeing how they turn out. Thanks for the suggestions!
James Jolly Glad you found it helpful! I planted garlic all over to protect my leafy greens....it's supposed to repel insect pests that eat our edibles! Thanks for watching!
Learn To Grow I have my garlic in a bed with my sweet onions and something is having a buffet with the leaves. I try to be diligent about picking the little guys off when I can find them but so far, I'd have to admit they're winning.
James Jolly Sorry, Misilla. I said garlic which I do have in the bed with the sweet onions but I meant my okra leaves are being munched on without mercy.
James Jolly
Did you get DE diatomaceous earth? You can try planting oregano, thyme or sage near your veggies to help deter insects...Sorry to hear this James!
Hey, Misilla. I hope you are having a good weekend. I have not gotten the DE yet. I put a really heavy line of crushed egg shells around the okra and I want to see how that does first. If they keep munching, DE is next!
Hi learn to grow! I love planting cloves of garlic in the spring (Michigan, May to August/October) I put a dozen or so per 24 inch rectangle planter. They wont mature in to heads with multiple cloves. But what I do get is delicious single bulb garlic. They grow to about an inch to an inch and a half in diameter. The sprouts get about 24 inches high by the end of Summer. Then a couple weeks after the sprouts have turned brown, I pull one out and check it. Then after the sprouts have been brown for a couple of weeks, I just keep an eye on the weather and let the bulbs keep growing as long as I can. Excellent mild tasting bulb of garlic, great for cooking.
Hi Jeffrey, I ended up leaving the bulbs and harvested the following summer. That’s a great idea using the immature bulbs. I did the same with elephant garlic , delicious! Thanks so much for stopping by, have a good night. Stay well and safe!
Misilla
I noticed our store bought garlic started to sprout on the counter and decided to try and plant it today (02Apr). I live in Virginia and I know it is way late but, I'll see how it goes.
2:54 that's what my black lab would do-he would adopt them all as his own chicks. He wouldn't hurt a fly. ❤
My coonhound, on the other hand, would have them all in his belley within five seconds... 😭
Lol :) Right? Their personalities are so different! Our new pit that we adopted would go after the chickens if he had a chance! Thanks for watching!
planting italian garlic today april 14. thanks for helping
You’re welcome!
The garlic planted in spring didn’t get as big and some didn’t mature so you can leave them in the ground if you want till next year.
@@LearnToGrow1 thank you so much for that info. I may need it!
I planted some this last March and they sprouted right away. Still growing now and its July. They're laying flat out there on the ground. no flowers on them. This is my first time growing them so no telling how they'll turn out. Wish me luck! haha. oh and I grew my own potatoes this year first time too. They're great. Sweet potatoes covering my yard now too. Love it considering I'm in an apartment. haha.
How did your garlic do? You can plant them now if you have time, they do best when they get a cold treatment. Thanks for stopping by! Misilla
Hello and thanks for the video! I've recently subscribed to your channel and am in zone 7b and curious about what zone you're in. I see you have tons of great videos!
Hi! Thank you so much! I’m in zone 8b. Have a great weekend! Misilla
Is it ok to plan garlic in April? If it yes how long is it take for that i can harvest?
Hi Misilla =) Yay, I haven't missed out on the garlic planting. I was going to give it a try but wasn't sure if it would work during the summer. Do I have to wait until I get some sprouts coming from the bulbs or can I just plant them? I bought some beautiful purplish striped garlic from the farmer down the road and was going to experiment with one of the bulbs.
Debi Lee Hi Debi! No you don't have to wait for it to sprout, just plant right now...Is is a softneck? The hardneck garlic generally does better when planted in the fall (cool climate type). Please forgive me for the late reply! Have fun and thanks for watching :) Misilla
Learn To Grow Hi Misilla and No Worries about the response!! =) I have been so busy that I totally forgot I asked. LOL Well, I think I have both types. One I bought from the grocery store and from what I just read those are usually softneck. The other we bought from a farmstand, it has beautiful purple streaks down the sides of the bulbs. So, not sure if that is hardneck or not. I do know that there was a small stem from the middle of the later that was very hard. If that helps. So I suppose the grocery store garlic I can plant now. =)
Debi Lee Yes that;s the hard neck with the twig like stem :) Have fun Debi!
Learn To Grow Cool, thanks so much Misilla =)
found some garlic in my crisper drawer sprouting... I am going to plant it in the raised beds now... thanks for the vid Learn To Grow not sure what variety it is...
Gardening Secrets Revealed Sounds great Toby! Thanks for watching!
Hi Misilla. I love garlic. We use it for almost everything, so my first year of gardening which was last year I planted it and it rotted. Now I'm trying again but doing things differently. Trying to grow garlic I would love your advise. Great video
Make sure to have proper drainage to prevent rot. I will watch the video. Thank you! Misilla nery colon
Hard working girl. The Garlic bulb looks quite big
Thank you very much for watching! Rohinton Irani
Hello 'Learn To Grow'. I liked your video. (Easy to follow, and instructive). I've planted cloves of Walmart purchased garlic. (I think it's grown in Calif, and cloves have slight pink skin). Planted it on 12Mar16, and last night (3Apr16) it snowed. ¿Does this mean it's lost for the season? Also, I've yet to see it begin to sprout. I don't know if it will grow. Any thoughts welcomed. Thank you and keep up your good work.
Hi thanks for stopping by! From experience it is best to plant garlic in the fall. The results are much better, we get bigger bulbs and the cold treatment is essential for clove formation.. I would plant more garlic this Fall at least two to three weeks before the first day of frost . I hope you have a great season and thanks for watching! Misilla
+Learn To Grow The shoots have come up from most of the cloves I planted! I will let these grow, hopefully, take them out near fall, and then, plant a new batch for cold treatment, as you say. Thank you for your comments and advice. Have a wonderful Spring/Summer/Fall. God Bless.
Somewhere Usa I hope your garlic did well for you! Happy fall! Misilla
Hello Learn To Grow (Misilla). Thanks for the well wishes. The garlic
did grow, but not as good as I see in your garden. I believe the
trouble was an arborvitae tree near the garden area spread its roots and choked out my garlic crop. I can tell, as I had to chop all its roots
that had spread over the garlic I planted in ~MArch. If I plant garlic
there again, I'll have to make sure I either cut that tree down, or
greatly reduce its root system near the plantings. Thanks again for the well wishes. God Bless your home. tonyd\.
I hope they do better next season and you're welcome!
That garlic is Fantastic Misilla. Is that strong Italian Garlic?
Patrick Meehan Thank you very much Patrick! I would say medium heat, yet robust flavor! Did you plant some this year? Have a great day! Misilla
I like how you call it lomi-soil. You must have island roots! Aloha
Todd White Lol! Must me my Filipino accent! Mabuhay! Thanks for watching!
Learn To Grow Cebuano (Y) Still I think at 2:04 you said "be sure your soil is loose or lomi" and to me, you only get small kine accent. "Lomi" in Hawaiian is to massage or loosen up. Good job on your presentation.
Todd White Thank you!
That garlic looked really nice. I may try some one day. I am in FL so I think softneck is the kind I should grow. I am not sure. Do you know the exact kind of garlic that was or is it called Italian? New subscriber here. I love what I have seen so far except the spider video. That was wayyy creepy lol. Janice
jksatte Hi Janice! Yes a sofneck variety would be ideal for your climate. The hardneck seems to do well in cooler climates. This is called Italian, they are pungent with robust flavor. Sorry about the spider he-he! Thank you so much for subscribing and watching! I got ill the past week so I finally uploaded a new video yesterday. Have a great day! Misilla
Learn To Grow
Sorry to hear you weren't feeling well. I will check out your new video. I really love these video's so I am looking forward to it. God Bless you. Janice
jksatte
Thank you Janice! I am feeling much better! I finally got a chance to catch up in the garden and yard work! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos and thank you so much for watching them :) Have a wonderful week :) Hugs, Misilla
Hi, how did these turn out? I am searching for a video!
Hi Nicky, they didn't get as big as they do when planted in the fall (Oct,-Nov.) . They need the cold treatment in order for the bulbs to develop properly. I didn't record a video on the results, unfortunately. Thanks for watching!
How did they end up growing?
Hi! I ended up leaving the immature bulbs in the ground and harvested the following season. If they don’t receive enough chilling time, the bulbs will not grow big and fully develop to divide into cloves. They need at least 40 days of of temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit in order to produce robust bulbs. Thanks for watching!
I've tried twice to grow garlic. Spring and fall. no luck :-(
vmcshannon Oh no, which zone are you in? If winters are very cold, make sure to mulch the garlic bed heavily at least 6 inches of leaves/straw etc...remove the mulch in spring after frost. I hope they do better next time. Thanks for watching! Misilla
Is it okay to plant garlic in may
Hi it would be best not to harvest the bulb this season if you plant that late. You can leave them in the ground till next season, so you can get bigger bulbs. You can harvest the leaves for cooking this season if you like. Thanks for watching! Misilla
Do you know what is the strongest garlic variety? thank you
I don't know about strong, but I have read that one of the best flavor and strong smell is German Porcelain. I would love to plant this fall! You're welcome and thanks for watching!
when do u know when to dig it up ??
Nice,I forget what variety,I just buy garlic randomly and plant randomly.So far only leaves no bulbs.Garlic sprouts as easy as potatoes.I will plant more today.
Keepskatin Thanks! Garlic can be harvested after planting between July and August...Just sit back and wait when the leaves turn brown that's when they're ready :)
Hey Mam,
Can I grow them in a pot ?
Eyna Musa Hi yes! Just make sure to space them out at least 4 inches apart so you get bigger bulbs. Planting them closely will result in small bulbs. Thanks for watching!
+Learn To Grow thanksss.. I love your channel..
I am a gardener hello
I'm in zone 5.
vmcshannon You can grow garlic this fall three weeks before frost and mulch heavily if it gets really cold in the winter. Thanks for watching! Misilla
Any follow up?
Hi they didn’t grow as large as they normally do when planted in early fall. Garlic needs the cold treatment to ensure good bulb development. It’s best to plant in the fall to harvest the following summer, which will give sufficient time to grow and mature. Thank you for watching!
Thanks.
Have you tried the stratification (cold treatment) in the refrigerator like with apple seeds? And then planted them?
Hi, no I never have. They can moldy with moisture present in the refrigerator.

Garlic is always planted in October, Always. Never in Spring!
Hi Robert, Yes that is true. This was six years ago and it was my second time growing garlic. It was a good lesson and the bulbs were immature, like green mild garlic. Thanks for stopping by. Misilla
I plant in the Spring, have always done it
