Amkuska's 2025 Garden

green garlic is great and similar to green onions. if you have any small cloves left after planting you can put them down deeper and closer together for a late winter or early spring harvest.

i can't plant that shallow here because of frost heaving would probably have most of what i plant come out of the ground by spring. maybe a one inch cover with garden soil would keep them ok for you there.

I will definitely give it a go and see if planting it a little deeper helps. Thank you for the tip!

Good chance that a deeper planting will do the trick. I plant mine 3-4" deep, and about 5-6" apart.

Garlic has not been disturbed! I did find a spot in my frost cloth that looks like something was trying to get through it (scratch marks, oddly, not tooth marks) but the garlic is healthy and intact. I'm really happy about it.

I repotted my tomatoes and took some fun photos of the roots. I'll try to get those posted later today.
