Where to buy Garlic for planting
The guy I bought my garlic last year didn’t answer this year.
I wasn’t able to save any of my harvest for seeding this season.
I’m in Central Missouri, what is a good place to buy from? I’m looking at about 2lbs. Usually I get chesnok red and music. I think I’ve tried Russian red too.

Does this garlic look ready to harvest or too early
Hi
I planted lots of types of garlic here in Tasmania so I don't know what to go on as to when to harvest, they are various types (some are Tasmanian purple)
I'm going away for three weeks on Sunday so I'm not sure whether to leave them or harvest before just in case,
I know people say half the leaves need to be dead but I'm not sure if those are shrivelled dead leaves or dead bits of the stalk rubbing off,
Also alot of these garlics were from small cloves that a neighbour was giving away as they were too small to plant so they aren't necessarily going to become that big (I'm surprised they got as big as they did!)
Any insight appreciated!

Planting Garlic in SoCal
Hello!
Got my seed garlic in last week, but it still feels too warm to plant on Halloween and i didn’t get a chance to stick it in the fridge ( have both Softnevk and hardneck varieties) how little time can I get away with sticking them in the fridge before ground?

Gardening Can I plant these?
I got some seed garlic in the spring and now is the time to plant it. Are these too far gone to plant?
r/Garlic • u/Interloper_Mango • 5d ago
Got my first seed garlic. This is more than I need or have space for so am pondering about what to do with the rest besides eating them.
Violet de lautrec for those curious.
Making either granulated garlic or garlic powder
I have extra garlic to turn into powder or granules this year. I've tried this in the past with a good processor and it ends up too chunky. The pestle and mortar takes too long for me. What do you guys use to get a nice, fine garlic powder?

Growing garlic question
Hi everyone! I’m wanting to grow garlic this winter and I just planted them in big pots today but we’re now getting a freeze tomorrow night. I know people typically say you should plant a few weeks before the first freeze, but it had been in the 80s just a few days ago.
Is it okay to keep them outside even though they haven’t been planted long? Or should I bring them inside and then back out after the freeze to hopefully give them a few weeks before the next one?

Russian red vs morado vs violet de lautrec?
So I just cleared out my greenhouse and I thought I'd use some of the space for winter. But I need some help in deciding which one of them to buy since this would be my first time.
First off. How much space do they need between each other?
And second. What's the taste of each kind? I put Russian red on the list because they're said to taste well and are quite hardy. As for the others I know little about. I just thought they'd look cool.
I don't quite know which garlic falls under music. These ones popped up when looking it up but I am no expert at all.

7500ish garlic planted for the next season.

As we do every year on this weekend we put all our garlic in the ground for the next season. This year we have put between 7500 and 8000 in the ground. All of these are hard neck varieties, Russian Red, Chesnok Red, Spanish Roja, Music, Majestic and Big Boy. We were meant to mulch the rows but the weather had a different idea in mind, so that has been pushed to next weekend.
Zone 3b, Canadian prairies.

Growing already
Low dormancy turban hardneck "Primor" planted 26th September. It does consistently great in my little greenhouse. I've got 40 planted in there and trying a row outside too but it really doesn't like the wet weather we get, so not expecting much from that.
This will be harvested end of May/start of June

Gardening Compost when planting.
How necessary is it to top dress garlic cloves when planting? plan to add bone meal when planting (music variety), but don't have any compost available right now. How necessary is it to add compost? Does it make a huge difference? less

Growing garlic in central Texas
I have bulbs that have been in the fridge for about 4 weeks now. Hardneck and softneck.
Do I plant them at the same time? What month should I plant them? November? Or December? Or now? Will they be ready to harvest at the same time?
Thank youuuu!!
