I ferment my garlic in raw honey and eat a clove a day. 👍👍👍

[@angelashaw9765]

I tried but the honey never really fermented. Any idea what I did wrong?

[@jasonheaddy5122]

@@angelashaw9765 Only use raw honey. I put mine in a mason jar with a Mason Tops fermenting lid on it. You need to shake or turn over the honey in the jar twice a day to keep the garlic cover in the honey. If you don't have a Mason Top you can use a regular lid but you'll have to burp it daily.

I thought that my garlic hadn’t turned out right. I planted late October and harvested them last month. I ignored them becuz I was so disappointed. Last night I was gonna dry them and make garlic powder or garlic salt. They were so fragrant that I decided to bite one and OMG!!! The best, pungent, and spicy garlic ever. I regret not planting more.

[@michaelwickham1179]

I failed miserably on my first year of growing garlic but now from learning from this garden king i hope next years harvest will be better. Thanks Nate, learn something every video and I've been growing for years and wondering what I've been doing wrong. Now I know so much more. Thanks again!!

[@MrOhmycharlie]

Yes Sir, I was a teenager in the '60's at Grandpa's and he didn't wash off the roots of garlic, peanuts, taters, turnips,etc. He laid them all on hay, and taters got sprinkled with lime, and peanuts with the green tops were sprinkled with salt.

[@momcomputer6461]

Printrbear, you prompted me to say how I dry my garlic. In the back of my firewood storage building, (no sun and plenty of air flow). I have a few pipes ran from wall to wall, about 7' high. I slip knot both ends of a string, open the "circle" large enough to pull the greens of the garlic through. I do the same on the other end of the string. Arrange the heads so that they have space between them. Pull the slip knot tight, then throw one of the bundles over the pipe and adjust both bundles so there is distance and air flow between the heads. I started doing it this way knowing that at the end of the season, a plants aerial parts "juices" are "drained" into the roots to preserve the plant. With that thinking, anything possibly left in the green stems should "drain" into the heads of the garlic. I can't prove any difference but it makes sense to me and curing garlic this way has worked like a charm for 8 years now.

[@VOTE4TAJ]

Again a good video especially discussing when to harvest by leaving garlic scapes. I recently learned that not only we should grow the biggest clove but select them from a bulb with most numbers of cloves on it.

[@dlcarbonneau3750]

I didn't have room for bush beans this year and planned to plant them into the garlic bed. Glad to hear why this is beneficial.

[@PlumbsmartPaul]

I harvested my garlic last month. Never grown it before but super easy and bug and deer resistant. I bought the Jadam Organic Farming book by Youngsang Cho. Best garden book I've ever read. I break all the input solutions formulas down to make 1 gallon to put in my pump sprayer. I know some people say they don't know how to do the calculations from liters, etc, to gallons, ounces, etc, and to small quantities. It's not that hard - simple math. Just ask the Google. I've been observing all the plants in my area that bugs, critters, and deer won't touch. Hands down, here it's ferns, and they're plentiful, so I made JHS with ferns and hot peppers. This evening, I mixed a gallon of JNP. I tried it on an army worm that unwittingly wandered into my path. Or was it I wandered into its path? Who knows and who cares. It was too close to my cabbages. Yes I have cabbages in GA in July. Almost instant death. I sprayed a small portion of my garden and will observe for a couple days to make sure I didn't harm the plants. I almost can't wait for the tomato horn worms to show up. Thanks, my friend, for turning me on to all this. Knowledge is always there waiting for me to stumble upon. I only have to go out and stumble more.

very nice my friend that's what its all about!!... did you also use the JWA with the JHS?

Garlic is also the king of wiping out sicknesses! As soon as you feel you might be getting sick, eat a couple cloves of raw garlic. Works so good!

[@PrintrBear]

Excellent ! Never heard the erect scape idea , pretty cool. Side note for readers . I’ve seen you can use a fence for hanging , however do it out of the sun . Also last year I used my corn stalks over top of chopped up leaves for my garlic and it worked great to protect the garlic and keep out weeds without having it buy in straw

[@gardenlikeaviking]

That's a great idea! thank you for sharing!

[@Happy2Run4Me]

I use pine straw because I live in the forest and it’s free and very readily available. It works great! I’m also lucky to be able to find leaf mold nearly everywhere. It’s so awesome! ☺️

[@pampotgieter7611]

Yes I love garlic too. Still new at learning how to plant garlic. Got some from the nursery last year. Only two made it. But next time I will know better, as to how to plant it. Now I am preparing to soil for spring. Heard a statement. "A farmer grows soil not plants" Something like that. Thank you Nate for another great video. ❤🇿🇦💚👍

[@MrKevinStraub]

but you plant garlic in the fall not the spring

[@nickthegardener.1120]

Hi Nate I got a decent harvest of garlic this year, I planted them on bush beans because you said previously and it definitely works. I also put ash and mulched with compost twice during the growing period.👍🏻🤠💗🙏

[@randramonnemed4212]

This year i followed your previous video about garlic, and i got a fantastic harvest, with enormous bulbs. But i didn t waited for the scapes to come, i harvested after a heavy drought, when all my plant felt on their side, yellowing. I ll try that next year, and a bit more watering during drought...

Also I’m the one who commented on monster seed.....

You must NOT SAVE their seed. That’s where you get the cross breed seed. Love your channel Nate and blessings to your sharing information.

[@moezarty]

Ive grown garlic for 6 years straight and it never occurred to me that I should use manure as a top dressing. Makes complete sense and thank you for waking me up. Would it be an issue to use fresh manure? Also, can I use home made compost instead of the straw? If yes, how thick should I lay it?Thank you for all your wonderful content. You have totally changed my way of life.

[@gardenlikeaviking]

fresh manure in the fall when planting is great!!... that horse manure I used was fresh from the horses in the last week or two!... if using compost on top of the manure make it so about 4 inches of total organic material is on top... maybe up to 6 inches... but straw works so fantastic for this application I suggest sourcing some

[@MrKevinStraub]

Hi Nate, it is your northern friend here up in Saskatchewan, central Canada's bread basket. Thought I'd check out your garlic tips. I've been growing about ten years, starting with about eight heads of garlic my uncle gave me, grown out on the western coast. I built it up, with addition of other varieties from the sellers, to a crop of about 2400 heads which I sell into local market. About a third of the crop goes to replanting. I found in the literature that the very largest cloves are not necessarily the best, but just large ones. We definitely don't want to plant any little stuff. I keep good records, so maybe I'll test that out and use only the very largest, this year. As I watched I was impressed that I do pretty much everything the same way you do. For curing, I just use my greenhouse, a 20x50 commercial style unit. The shade cloth goes over the entire structure, the fans set to run at about 70-75 degrees. After two or three weeks, I put them up in plastic milk crates and store in my dry, dark, insulated garage which I keep at about 50 degrees during our deep-freeze winters. They keep great! I will be pulling my crop in two weeks and I am still eating from last year's stock. So, when I harvest the bulbs, I do trim off about half the stalk/leaves, gently removing the dirt in the roots, but no further tampering. I used to hang them when I began, but now I just lay them out one layer deep, shingle style, on large screen mesh tables and other tables get sheets of cardboard laid on them. You are absolutely correct about leaving them dirty and taking no layers off. Pretty doesn't matter. Storing a long time does. My last step is simply to trim off the stalk, leaving the stem about 3 inches, just like you do, and the beard, leaving about a half inch of root whiskers. Funny, I have never seen anyone besides me, leave three inch stems! I use horse manure in the soil, here, working in about 6 inches on the gardens every third year. I have so much room, here that I can rotate every crop easily, even my large ones, like potatoes and garlic and onions, as well as give ample spacing, so amending every year not necessary at all. My main cropper gardens are situated beneath a gentle slope which is a horse pasture, so the runoff from that is manure tea! Everything is "super-size-me" out of those gardens! My Flat Dutch cabbages will approach twenty pounds, sometimes. Anyway, I have not thought about adding nitrogen. I don't have a long enough season to put bush beans in at mid-August and too busy to implement that anyway. Most years the nights reach freezing temps about mid-September. But I am going to try putting a sprinkle of nitrogen fertilizer on the beds in the fall, before laying the straw down. Now, I'm stoked to see what that does! One difference is that I plant the garlics deeper than you, pushing them in about 3 inches. They can get set pretty firmly in the ground so I have a special skinny shovel to break the soil around them at harvesttime. Also, I have not previously done any feeding. I will try adding nitrogen into the situation as you suggest. Always looking for ways to up my game and you are a good resource for that. Thanks for your dedication and heart for sharing! This is a noble work!

We still have some soft necks from last year. Read the opposite soft keeps longer than hard. Honestly it could be that it’s just easier! I braid 12 and hang them up where it can dry. Love the hard-necks for scapes! Such a nice flavor. Somehow the hard necks I thought I planted turned out to be soft necks tho! No scapes. Was very sad! Ended up with a bit over 100.

[@sarahg9619]

First time I have heard the suggestion of waiting for an erect scape to determine harvest time vs. the common suggestion of “bottom two/three leaves are yellowing - time to harvest!”. Any particular reason why this helps to indicate peak harvest time has come? I will definitely be trying this method next year! Thanks!

[@gardenlikeaviking]

because depending on the variety and the year and the amount of nutrients the plant receives it may never really yellow back... I've had bulbs almost start to rot in the ground while waiting for the plant to yellow... the scape is a fail safe method
