Sowing Instruction

Buy fresh garlic from the store or, even better, a farm stand. If you have some garlic at home that has sprouted, use it. Break the head apart into cloves. In the fall, push the cloves into the ground. Point the tips upward and plant the cloves about 2 inches deep. Fertilize the cloves or top-dress with compost. Mulch the cloves with hay, dry leaves, or straw. Fertilize again in the spring but not after May.
