Title: Garlic Post by: Astronuc on March 27, 2006, 03:32:51 PM Well, I think I am going to grow some garlic this year - as an experiment. Nothing like serendipity or a fortuitous opportunity to try something new.
It seems we have some garlic from our refrigerator or wherever, and it sprouted, so I'll take advantage and plant it. ;D Anyway, here are some sites I found: http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/cropsystems/components/7317-planting.html http://www.naturalhub.com/grow_vegetable_type_garlic.htm http://thegarlicstore.com/index.cgi/grow.html http://www.organic-growers.com/bfarm/garlic_planting_guidelines.html :koala Title: Re: Garlic Post by: Patty on April 11, 2006, 01:01:13 PM I had tried Gourmet Garlic Gardens some years ago:
http://www.gourmetgarlicgardens.com/ And I have found that two of their varieties suit our needs best. One yields si huge cloves per head and keeps for about 7 months. The other has many more cloves per head, but can keep for close to a year. So, we manage to grow most of the garlic we need, braided and hung in the kitchen. I've got less planted this year, but should still have enough to last several months. |
