My response is: rise and shine โจ๐๐ผ๐
What are you planting? ๐ฑ enjoy the process!
Do you grow garlic?
Yes ๐ง
What kind of soil would you say is best?
So, just a little insight into my gardening conditions. My terrace is indoor but with a lot of sun exposure... if I'm lucky. London... ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐ .
I would just take some quality garden soil and mix it with compost, or worm compost (is pretty nice). It makes your soil more alive and nourishing, before you fertilize it with fertilizer.
The best time to plant the garlic cloves may be in fall, they like a cold period to grow better.
But you could just plant them now and wait a year or probably more. I did that last year, and after a full year of being in the ground, the garlic *almost* started to look like a full bulb, but it would still need some more time. I separated the cloves and planted them again, the other two I will leave them until fall๐
