GARLIC

The edible bulb that can be added to almost any dish

A Southern European plant that grows well in cooler regions

Requires rich soil with plenty of manure or compost and plenty of sun to grow optimally

Plant in fall by picking off individual cloves from a bulb and planting them in a hole deep enough to leave the top end just covered with soil

Plant 10 cm apart in a deep bed

Keep the cloves weeded and don’t give them too much water

When harvesting, fork the garlic out of the ground when the stems dry up and dry them out in the sun for a few days or under cover where rain won’t reach them

Drying is essential if you want to store garlic. Tie the heads into bunches and hang them in a dry, cool place with good airflow

Use them as needed and remember to keep some to plant the following year 🤘🏽
