So I just planted some and its February, do you think they will grow? I'm in colorado. When would be the best month to put some out to grow? We get very harsh winters
cool
Do you know if allowing the garlic to flower is a good or bad thing? I've read that I should trim the chives that sprout and that it's not nessesary. Also not to allow the plants to flower. Which is best? Thanks!

Totally planting the little cloves I have that started sprouting already!
wow terrible advice
I would say no though I may be wrong
I don't even cut it when I am cooking, I agree, unneeded.
buy garlic cloves then?
ha ha you trying to be smart?
I prefer to buy garlic spice because my food tends to get cold while waiting for them to grow.
Good rule of thumb... Wonder if that goes for onions too?
That sounds good to me. :)
I hear the pros plant on the shortest day of the year and harvest on the longest day of the year. Thoughts?
So much wrong with this video. Referring to a bulb or head as a clove. An alium, not a alium. AND PRESSURE TREATED WOOD RAISED BED SIDING OMG LOLOLOLZ
9 months. Plant Sep/Oct Harvest Late Summer
If you plant them in the spring you will not get anything. Maybe some pretty flowers if you are lucky. Fall is best!
I don't understand. You are saying to plant them in the fall (0:40), and then at the end of your video you say you are harvesting them in the fall (2:28). Does it take a whole year for them to grow?
OK ....thank you and if I plant out in October ....then the harvest next year??? Thanks!
Thanks, really worth while. It should taste a lot stronger than dried Garlic, phew!.
