Everyones Garlic update Please!

[TZ -OH6]

My Chesnok turned out like your Music so I'm looking to replace it. I have enough big seed Klaver for a small trade. 5-6 big huge cloves per bulb with big thick tasty scapes. PM me.

Now I would be up for a trade I'm just saying I wouldn't have that many to trade with.

This is my first year with good garlic and we all know how fast your stores can grow if you do it right.

Also after I have given away plenty put some aside for planting along with the roughly 10 bulbs upstairs that were put in the use first pile. I still have a half gallon or bigger basket filled to the brim with bulbs, so I probably have more than I think.

I have Chesnok Red and Music.

I was trying to pull Dono's leg. I couldn't let him out do me in garlic. The ground did get vary hard and covered with weeds, but still a descent harvest.

our garlic didn't do as good as the last few years either(that's to be expected when compared to two AMAZING garlic years), but there is still enough garlic to eat until next year and enough to plant along with the thousand+ bulbils I planted. I always have to water my garlic more than the other beds. the thicker mulch soaks up a lot of the initial water leaving the soil underneath dry if you water lightly.

I think like you it was just the spot it was in.

Soil,

Have any to trade?

I have two brown shopping bags of garlic harvested. No, not full of bulbs, but with no more than double layer of bulbs with stalks sticking out of them. One bag is cleaned and th other bag has dirt on them still.

A few just harvested bulbs accidentally got soaked when I forgot to move them out of the way before watering, so I washed and separated those into cloves and froze them right away. You're ight Marlingardener. They are easy to reach for and cook with, and they keep the fresh harvested flavor which s kind of nice.

Dang apple you had me wondering what the.....

I know how you garden and it isn't 500 garlic plants or anything else. Two shopping bags now that would be haul.

What variety are they?

[applestar]

Music, Elephant, and um... I think German pink hard neck, but I'm not positive (Ths was grown from harvested garlic last year -- I.e. Originally purchased a couple of years ago.)

I'm sure I've mentioned it in previous posts. It's smaller than Music and has pink streaks on the skin. I do know I was trying to choose between that and NY White. Since these aren't white, they must be the other one.... The write up said these are customer favorites at Manhattan farmer's markets.

Almost ready for storage or sale or trade.
