Work a 1 inch layer of compost into beds before planting. Divide garlic bulbs into cloves just before planting, and keep as much garlic skin on as possible. Do not peel. Plant cloves at 6” apart, 2-3” deep. Make sure to plant the garlic clove with the tip facing upwards towards the sky, and the root downwards into the ground. Mulch with several inches of straw.Plant 6-8 weeks before the ground freezes in Northern regions, or plant as late as March in regions without a freeze. In colder regions, apply another inch or two of compost in the spring to boost the garlic’s growth. As harvest time approaches (begin checking in the late June), reduce or stop watering to prevent mold on the bulb. Harvest the bulbs when the top 4-5 leaves are slightly green and the lower leaves are dry. Each leaf represents one layer of skin over the bulb. Dry and cure the bulbs in a dry, cool, shaded location for 3-4 weeks, and then cut the foliage and root hairs from the bulbs. Store in a cool, dry place.Try braiding softneck garlic by keeping the leaves on the plant! Add fresh culinary herbs such as sage and rosemary, as well as flowers such as statise, and strawflowers into the braids, and they will dry beautifully. Soil pH 6-7.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlanting Depth \u003cb\u003e2-3”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant Spacing \u003cb\u003e2-3”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRow Spacing \u003cb\u003e6”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDays To Maturity \u003cb\u003e8”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFull Sun\u003c\/b\u003e,\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e##This artichoke garlic is a local selection from Southern Oregon between a few different artichoke garlic varieties. It is heat tolerant, as it outperformed all other varieties during a sudden intense heat spike in the beginning of the summer. It stores through the winter for 6-9 months, and its mild flavor increases with storage. It has beautiful purple skins and an average 12-14 large cloves per bulb. Tags: Harvest: Mid, Season: Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGarlic has been cultivated for at least 5000 years. It is native to Central Asia and Northeastern Iran, but was carried to most parts of the world as a pungent herb and medicine, where it was cultivated into many distinct and subtle varieties. The word “garlic” comes from the Old English word “garleac”, which means “spear leek”. ##Feral Farm##Certified Organic by CCOF##Seed grower since 2015##\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/files\/Feral-Farm-Photo-small.jpg?3##I started growing seed commercially as an apprentice at the Organic Farm School in the Puget Sound in Washington.
