My understanding is actually most grocery store garlic is softneck because hardneck doesn’t tend to store nearly as long. In my experience my hardneck are always much larger than my softneck so super interesting that yours is opposite. Granted I’ve only grown it for two years 🤣

@@ChickadeeFarmDiva interesting. I wonder if it varies by state and region? I know here in Idaho it's illegal to plant grocery store garlic because they don't want you to possibly spread pathogens into the soil. So it could have something to do with that as well.
