Plant Care & Growing Tips

To ensure a successful harvest from your organic garlic bulbs, proper care is essential. Garlic thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Plant your bulbs in the fall, typically 4-6 weeks before the ground freezes, to allow root development before winter. The ideal soil type is a well-draining, loose, and fertile loam, rich in organic matter. Amend heavy clay soils with compost or sand to improve drainage. A neutral soil pH (6.0-7.0) is preferred for optimal growth. Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering as the leaves start to yellow, usually in late spring or early summer, to prevent bulb rot and encourage curing. Fertilize with a balanced organic fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Watch for common issues like rust or white rot, ensuring good air circulation and crop rotation to prevent disease. Growing this multi-variety garlic is an enjoyable experience with these simple guidelines.

The exact number of bulbs will vary depending on the individual size of each bulb within the 8 oz weight. These bulbs are shipped ready for planting, typically in a dormant state. Garlic plants generally reach a height of 1-3 feet with a similar spread, forming a clumping growth habit. Growth rate is medium, with bulbs maturing for harvest in late spring to mid-summer, approximately 8-9 months after fall planting.
