Choose the Right Garlic Variety – Softneck garlic is best for mild climates, while hardneck garlic thrives in colder regions.
Plant in Fall or Early Spring – For the best yield, plant garlic in the fall, about 4-6 weeks before the first frost.
Use Quality Garlic Cloves – Select large, healthy cloves from an organic source—avoid store-bought garlic treated to prevent sprouting.
Plant in Well-Draining Soil – Garlic thrives in loose, nutrient-rich soil with good drainage; add compost for extra nutrients.
Space Cloves Properly – Plant cloves 2 inches deep, 4-6 inches apart, with the pointed end facing up.
– Water Consistently but Avoid Overwatering – Keep the soil moist but not soggy; reduce watering as harvest time approaches. –
Harvest at the Right Time – When the lower leaves turn brown but a few green leaves remain, it's time to dig up the bulbs.
