As I see the rows of garlic growing so well it's really given me the itch to plant TONS more for next year. I'm looking to turn the farm into a serious spud and garlic producer. 1000 garlic this year should more than quadruple for next year. At that rate it will be about 3 years before the farm is stuffed with garlic rows.

How do you prepare and sell it? I've been doing walking Egyptian onions for a few years and they are so prolific I need to rip them out and throw them in the swamp and woods. Now they are growing everywhere.

Garlic is super easy. Just pull when ready and let dry in the sun for a day or two then bunch and hang in an out of the sun warm area until the leaves are dried. Cut the tops off and they are good to go. I save and store what I plan on planting in my cooler for about 3 months before planting in October as it needs a stratification period.

Why do you put in sun to begin with?

It helps to dry the dirt on the roots out before hanging.
