garlic

Posted 682 days ago

I'm new to the forum so may be covering old ground. I grew garlic last season and they didn't form cloves, just grew like a large leek. We don't have frost so I wonder whether I should have chilled the bulbs before planting. The cloves I planted were from a garlic farm at Stanthorpe - admittedly much colder than our climate. Any clues?

plant garlic cloves in Autumn and let them grow till they start to die back.which is about 6 to 9 months.
