Planting Garlic

• Select planting location, full sun preferred
• Plan for 8" - 12" spacing between cloves
• Loosen all soil, rich and sandy loam preferred
• Planting recommended in late October
• Gently crack bulb apart into individual cloves
• Keep as much skin and root plate on each clove
• Plant clove, root end down 3" - 5" deep
• Cover with soil and pack gently
• Add a thick mulch layer 4"- 6" on top of soil
• Wait for leaves to poke up early in the spring
• Remove garlic scapes in June, when fully curled
• Plan for harvest late in July when 1/2 the leaves are brown
• Ensure good ventilation while drying
