I planted in early October. There is light snow where I am now and I foolishly planted 1-2 inches deep. My hard neck seems to be fine but should I put more straw back down to help cover it again or am I cooked?

Moderate garlic fan. Not sure what to search in google. Can someone tell me what this shaboingrr in my garlic is

I love the taste of garlic to the point where I eat it raw or put like a half garlic on my plate with bolognese or whatever but eventually it starts to burn to the point where I feel it's spicier than red chili or anything else I tried I even feel a little bit nauseous after

this time I had like 5 maybe 10 cloves mixed with my food the taste is amazing but it just burnt so much that it was painful but the taste made it worth it

I'm currently having to use crushed garlic as an antibiotic. I've found that swallowing the crushed garlic in small amounts using whole milk helps. Not only does it taste good ( like fettuccine Alfredo) but the milk coats the garlic. This keeps the garlic from causing an upset stomach, least for me it does. Ive noticed a huge difference in the speed that the garlic kills infections when using milk to swallow it. I learned thats because more of the bioactive compounds pass through the stomach and into the intestine after being coated in milk. Im on day 3 of 2x per day of 5 cloves crushed ( about 3 mouth fulls). Ive stopped coughing up blood and almost stopped coughing. Amazing stuff garlic.

As per title, what do I do?!! It’s like the Allicin literally burned divots on the sides and tip of my tongue. It is so irritating and painful 😭😭. How do I fix this.

Moreover, is allicin really that powerful to cause this?

Is it okay if my garlic already sprouted??! I’m in zone 3b! Should I add more hay to it? They are green! lol

I seriously don't know how that happened, but i took this lil sprout off and there was what appeared to be a heart on it 🥲 think i'll be planting it in a special place 😊

How can I tell if a clove is good to grow or has no chance? Are there clear characteristics? I can tell when it’s good, but I can’t tell at what point it’s past growing condition.

I finally was able to plant my garlic today. This is a picture of my rejects. I’ve been growing garlic on a small scale for more than ten years. 🙏🏻

I'm a little afraid to go out because i don't know if i smell horrible. I've been eating like... 7 cloves a day I'd say lately and I can't really tell if I smell. If i smell my shirt, it just smells like deodorant or the body wash I use. My family didn't seem to notice but I'm not sure theyre reliable. Thoughts?

I’m going to name him Rocky cause he just punched his way through the leaves! Planted Oct. 24, watered twice since. Ready to add a deeper mulch layer as we may have our first freeze here in central Oklahoma next week. First time trying garlic. So excited! Purchased the organic cloves at Walmart.

I am in 8b/9a central coast of ca and planted garlic for the first time a couple weeks ago. Have some irrigation set up for once a week for 20 min. No rain in the forecast. I can’t find any info on it

I ordered a huge (6 lbs.) container of garlic powder from Amazon because it was a great deal, described as made in the USA, and I use a lot of it. What arrived did not look right (not fine powder and deep brown in color) and was labeled a product of India. Amazon gave me a refund, but didn't want the garlic returned. I don't want to use it in cooking. Anyone have any ideas of other things to do with it?

I’m sure this question gets asked every year but this is my first time growing garlic. I live in zone 6 and my garlic has sprouted! It’s only at about an inch high at most but do I need to worry?

I planted about 50 gloves a couple of weeks ago. Today I noticed a glove dug up and parts of another that was eaten. I haven’t had squirrels get into my garlic before. I’m thinking about covering the beds for winter. Anyone else have a issue with them?

does anyone know brands of good pickled garlic? i’ve been craving it like a mofo
