Fall Seed Garlic
"Most of the garlic produced in the US comes from the milder regions of the Northwest. Southern growers looking for garlic adapted to their area are often left out in the cold! Here at Southern Seed Garlic, we feel our seed garlic is some of the best in the market. Our garlic is tested for southern-adaptability and is 100% non-GMO and naturally grown. Our bulbs are hand-inspected at every stage and only offered for sale if it has proven to be reliable and resilient in a variety of climates." - Southern Seed Garlic
Plant in the Fall. September until December.
Break your garlic bulbs apart into individual cloves. You will be planting approximately 6 inches apart and about 3 or 4 inches deep. Remember that the cloves have a top and a bottom so be sure to plant with the root side down.
You can mulch by covering the planted area with straw, leaves or grass clippings. The more weed free the better. Mulching will conserve water and act as a natural weed barrier. Mulching is optional.
If you live in an area that gets a lot of rain it is probably best not to mulch so the garlic does not remain too wet, especially toward the end of the season.
Weed as needed through the Spring and harvest in late June to Early July.
