  • I think we may have overdone the garlic

    I'd already planted cloves from last years crop when I spotted a bargain so bought some more. Then there were some from the supermarket that I thought I'd give a try. Next thing you know a fellow gardener gave me a big plant pot full of cloves so I put those in too. We've lost about 20% to white rot but it still leaves us with 138 bulbs

        You'll be keeping it at bay with that nice little harvest then. That's probably one clove every 50 foot.

          Proper beauties... Even if it doesn't keep vampires at bay, it might ward off common colds.

          Have you ever made garlic soup? It doesn't sound very promising but I really like it. Skordalia is also good if you have plenty of garlic, and you certainly do.
