Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation:

Separate garlic cloves from the bulb just before planting. Choose the largest and healthiest cloves for planting.

Avoid breaking the papery skin on the cloves, as this protects them from disease.

Sowing:

Plant garlic cloves with the pointed end facing up, about 2 inches deep and 4-6 inches apart in rows spaced 12-18 inches apart.

Ensure cloves are planted in well-draining soil to prevent rot.

Germination:

Garlic does not grow from traditional seeds but from individual cloves. Each clove will sprout roots and shoots under proper conditions.

Transplanting:

Garlic is typically not transplanted once cloves are planted in the ground. Allow them to remain in place until harvest time.

Care and Maintenance:

Water garlic consistently, ensuring the soil remains evenly moist but not waterlogged.

Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Remove any flower stalks (scapes) that develop to divert the plant's energy into bulb growth.

Harvest garlic bulbs when the tops begin to yellow and fall over, typically 8-9 months after planting.

Cure harvested bulbs in a warm, dry location with good air circulation for 2-3 weeks before storing.
