Looks great Jim, ill be smoking a pork butt this weekend.
I always dug my garlic up from under the ground. How do you know how many are ready?
Thanks
the stems and shoots above ground, turn brown, so you know the bulbs, underground are ready. it's a weird one to work with, as we found out last year. Asked if anyone had garlic starters. Was told you plant garlic in oct / nov, then harvest late june or july.
Unfortunately, I think I pulled up all my garlic, as I haven't seen any the last year. That's for the garden thread though I guess.
It makes sense that they over-winter, because you do the same thing for other bulbs, like tulips and daffodils.
If you left some in the ground, will they reproduce and continue to get a larger and larger community each season?
Yeah, that's the real challenge. "A garlic head in the hand is worth 2 in the soil.", or something like that.
Ready to cut into steaks and grill to taste.
