Heck of a job there, it absoleutly helps me out.
That’s a good idea, Chris!
I’m planting one bulb of garlic this fall. My current garden is very small, and with the following recommendation from Boundary Garlic Farm:
“We recommend using a four or five year rotation if you can, with three or four years in non-allium crops.”
I can only plant a little bit if I want to plant more next year!
Can you go to Boundary Garlic Farm and buy seed garlic direct from them? It seems silly to order online when we don’t live very far away.
Thanks for your comments, Quinn. Why don’t you buy garlic at your local farmer’s market? If you can only plant a bit — planting local garlic will guarantee that it will do well in your climate zone. And it will save you the hassle. Most farmer’s market garlic growers will be able to tell you what variety they are growing. I’m growing Russian Giant and Romanian Red.
