    Because garlic is planted UNDER the ground................ it will usually sort itself out even if it is upside down. (swan necked garlic anyone?)

    Pointy end to the top is best! Or green end up as a famous vine guru was so oft fond of saying saying !and you should be able to see where the base of the garlic was on the parent before you split the cloves away.........they go the same way up!

      I've planted that green end pointing upwards, and i had planted them upside down.

      They are all the right way up now

      Like i said i've never grown garlic before, so i understand why i did it wrong, but now i know which way to put it i won't make the same mistake again.

      It's the first time i have grown onions too and i brought sets, i did these at the same as the garlic so i checked that i had done these right and i had.

      so just need my raised beds to be build now!!

      Thank you for all of your help

          Ok pass the Tenna lady
          Just laughed soooooooo loud hubby and the dogs came running in to see if i was having a fit !!!!!!
          Sorry i know getting your garlic in a tizz is stressful but the thought of you whipping them out and shoving them up the other way only to find they where the right way up to start with is like something out of a carry on film.....Carry on planting

            Can't you just lay the cloves on the side when planting?

                      Green shoot up is the correct way LL.
