Kathy Lalibarte Tips you how to grow garlic at home.
Choose a variety that is well-suited to your growing zone. Seed catalogs and local gardening centers offer many great choices. They will also help you choose the best variety.
Use a pitchfork to prepare the planting bed by loosening up the ground where you plan to plant. Take the time to enrich the soil with compost by spreading it out evenly across the prepared bed.
A single clove of garlic will produce an entire head next summer. When planting garlic, choose the biggest cloves. Position your garlic cloves where they will be planted, spacing them apart 6 to 8 inches on center.
Dig up just enough soil to plant the clove 3 inches below the surface. Don’t plant to deep.
In Zones 4 and 5, garlic appreciates spending the Winter beneath an insulating layer of straw or shredded leaves. Layer your insulation about 6 layers in depth. Be sure to wait until the ground begins to freeze before you apply it.
