Plant Care & Growing Tips

Planting garlic is a rewarding experience, especially with these high-quality organic garlic bulbs. For best results, plant garlic in the fall, typically 4-6 weeks before the ground freezes. This allows the roots to establish before winter, leading to larger bulbs come harvest time. Choose a site with full sun, receiving at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. The soil should be well-draining, loose, and rich in organic matter. A slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0) is ideal for optimal growth. Incorporate compost or well-rotted manure into the soil before planting.

Separate the garlic bulbs into individual cloves, leaving the papery skin intact. Plant each clove pointed-side up, about 2-4 inches deep and 4-6 inches apart, in rows spaced 12-18 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting. During active growth in spring and early summer, ensure consistent moisture, aiming for about 1 inch of water per week, either from rain or irrigation. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to rot. Fertilize with a balanced organic fertilizer or compost tea in early spring when green shoots emerge. Keep the area free of weeds, as garlic does not compete well with them. Harvest when the lower leaves begin to yellow and dry, but there are still 4-5 green leaves remaining. Cure the garlic in a dry, well-ventilated area for several weeks before storing.
