Harvest when the leaves turn yellow and then leave them to dry in the sun for approximately 4 weeks.

Plant History

Planted in May 2025 with two different types from Bunnings in a new planter box that was on special.

Personal Musings

Garlic is one of the more useful things to grow. The herbs are number one as you only ever need a few and the supermarkets give you way too many in a plastic bag. Garlic is always rubbish from the supermarket and feels like it is already sprouting when you purchase it a lot of the time. Caitlin is very excited to see how this progresses.
