Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation:

Break apart the garlic bulb into individual cloves, keeping the papery husk on each clove intact.

Select the largest cloves for planting as they will produce the strongest plants.

Sowing:

Plant cloves in the fall, about 4-6 weeks before the ground freezes.

Sow cloves 2 inches deep with the pointed end facing up.

Space cloves 4-6 inches apart in rows 12-18 inches apart.

Germination:

Garlic does not truly "germinate" like seeds, but will establish roots and sprout in the fall.

Mulch heavily with straw or leaves to protect cloves over the winter.

Transplanting:

No transplanting is necessary, as cloves are planted directly in their final growing location.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly, especially during dry periods, ensuring soil is consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Remove mulch in the spring to allow the soil to warm up.

Weed regularly to reduce competition for nutrients and water.

Monitor for pests such as aphids and diseases like white rot; treat as necessary.

Harvest when the lower leaves turn yellow and begin to dry, typically in mid-summer.

Cure garlic bulbs by hanging them in a dry, well-ventilated area for 2-3 weeks before storage.
