Tomorrow is my day for planting my garlic. I will go to the produce market where I get seedlings and seeds and hope that they have not sold out of garlic. I checked my garden and I have a few bulbs that have put up fresh green leaves. If the market doesn't have any can I dig up and plant what is coming up in my garden?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

If you dig them up they might not have lots of cloves yet. Hopefully you find some. Check out my seed shop for all your seed starting supplies and end of the year seed discounts. www.therustedgarden.com

Gary...Im in NC right outside raleigh..I planted my garlic 3 wks ago... So it began to sprout already...The sprouts are about 3 inches. Do I need to trim them at all? or just leave it

[@pattyclarkson3]

I'm in Frederick, MD. It'd be awesome to visit but.... I'm moving to SC next week. 😊 Can't wait to start my garden there! Thank you for all of the great info.!

[@Just-Nikki]

Patricia Clarkson that will certainly be fun! I’m in the opposite situation. I’m from Atlanta but I moved to Saint Louis last year and it’s a whole new ballgame. Safe travels and happy planting!

[@pattyclarkson3]

Hi Gary! I planted garlic this past Fall, October. Last month, the evil grass cutter man (no names mentioned) lol, ran over my garlic bed. 2 stems have gently grown back. When is the time to pick garlic? How do I know whe its ready to pluck out? Thank you!

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Usually the green grow yellows and falls and that is when you harvest. I would dig a few up and see how they look.

Hi Gary, did the plastic bag greenhouse work for you or cause problems? I seen your other garlic videos and don't hear you mention it again. I purchased some but not sure about using. Zone 4 planted in grow bags. Thank you.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

I helps. I found. My zone to be much more mild. Just keep the bags slightly vented do keep circulation available. Im in Zone 7 and found the garlic can take more cold than I thought.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Gary, thanks so much for your reply. Garlic grows here no problem in Montana. I just have to use grow bags so want to provide more protection. I have friends in Alaska zone 3 who grow it in beds with no special care and it always does fine that far north as well.

Hi Gary, it is December 18th and I want to plant garlic in a container outside. I know it's late but is it too late? And if not is there anything special I have to do since it is so late?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

I think I commented earlier. You have time.

[@gretaknebel8495]

I’m planting my garlic next week in zone 9B.

When do you typically plant garlic in Maryland zone 7? I am in Maryland I don’t know when is a good time in October? Or November?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Now is okay but it will shoot. Middle October seems best. Get your Fall Garden Seeds & Spring Seed Starting Supplies at... Please Visit The Rusted Garden Seed & Garden Shop: www.therustedgarden.com

[@nehapawar632]

Hi Gary, nice video.. will you be making a video to plant garlic in raised beds ? Also can we plant garlic after first frost date? I am zone 6

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

I am doing it Sunday. And yes you can do it at the start of the frost date. Check out my seed shop for all your seed starting supplies and end of the year seed discounts. www.therustedgarden.com

[@HiVizCamo]

Would snow cover be a problem for the container? I want to use a pair of heavy immovable planters for this, which will probably be under snow come January. I know that's an insulator, but enough to get through? Zone 6a Ontario. Thanks!

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Nope. A layer of snow can be insulating which you noted. I think the out edge of container might be issue but center would be fine. Check out my seed shop for all your seed starting supplies and end of the year seed discounts. www.therustedgarden.com

[@HiVizCamo]

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN I'm going to try both options, one in a portable container to protect from snow. I have enough garlic to experiment! Would love for it to work, these terra cotta planters are our herb department. Thanks,

[@carolparrish194]

Gary I was just wondering if this would work for potatoes. We do get some freezing temp here in Ky.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Yes it does actually but I dont over winter my potatoes. I put them in like Feb. Check out my seed shop for all your seed starting supplies and end of the year seed discounts. www.therustedgarden.com

[@christinehill1618]

Thanks for the garlic video. Do you need to water it all winter or just let do its thing?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Just let it go.

[@rickysyoutubechannel7749]

So I added some espoma organic fertilizer to some mg potting mix, but I used the recommended amount on the bag which is like 2 cups per 1 cubic foot. My pot was about 2 cubic feet. Is that too much fertilizer for garlic?

[@rickysyoutubechannel7749]

I was asking cause miracle gro has added fertilizer in it, and I was worried I might burn my garlic's roots.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

It is okay. the MG stuff is slow release and so is the organic ferts. It wont hurt. Please help me build a greenhouse for FreeTown Farm, a non-profit I am volunteering at.
