I started a couple bulbs worth but nothing on this scale.
I’m looking forward to harvesting sometime in july.
We planted some potatoes at the same time in the near vicinity, hoping they’ll be done at the same time, but I just wait for the tops to die off to start the search
This is DFG garlic,now in brown paper bagd. Weed is sticky wickie AF. Now it smells exactly like school clay, very good memory. 140 grams from 5 plants, enough for 10 months.
I planted 18 cloves last october/november, and in spring the squirrels dug up all but 5. 2 of them were stunted, so i only got 3 bulbs. Drying now, but they do look and smell good. Will try again for next year using my anti critter doohicky.
Garlic?? Been growing them 10-11 years now. Best crop in the garden. You get 2 harvests and seed for next year. I harvested 500 + in July.View attachment 68578
Yes 2 harvests if you are growing hard necks. I get a garlic scape harvest around first week in June and then harvest the bulbs around July 4th.

I have a bunch of elephants here too. I grow them for the flower. I will eat the scapes but the elephant garlic itself is just too bland. It does naturalize nicely though. Makes dynamite cut flowers that last a long time.
In regular garlic I grow, Music, Susan Delafield, Romanian Red, German Red and Bogatyr. If I could only grow one it would by the bogatyr.
