A Spring Garlic thread!

What a wonderful surprise! Big Grin

Looking foward to hearing how everyone's garlic got through the winter, and through the floods and tornado's and snow banks, did I miss anything?

Thanks, Dave! Big Grin

If you can grow food, you have a cosmic obligation to feed those that can't.

Well, guess I'll be first.

Here is mine.



And this is what I think is some wild garlic growing in the ditch.

To be honest, I wasn't sure if it would be safe to eat. I know some wild stuff is dangerous and I don't know enough to know what is safe and what isn't. Is all garlic safe?

If it's garlic, it's safe. Can't attest to what it's been subjected to while in the road ditch though. I'd dig some up and transplant it, cultivate it yourself to see what you might get out of it.

Thanx Dave Smiler

Duh!!! You all know what we haven't done? We don't have the garlic contest worked out. OG is signed on for books for the winners and
Territorial Seeds is graciously donating gift certificates. We need categories, maybe some rules and judges, right? Roll Eyes This contest will finish before the tomato contest is half done. So, we better get cracking, gang. Any volunteers for judges for starters? Don't make me delegate.

Connie isn't growing Garlic this year, so ask her to be a judge! At least, that way, she can participate, and maybe it will get her butt in gear to grow it next year! Big Grin
