My cat was standing under the TV, mesmerized by your cat in the garden. My cats don’t go outside because we have an in-ground pool and crazy neighbors, but they sure do love eating the fresh catnip from the garden. Thank you for this video, I think I’ll be able to adapt your tips to my warm climate.
My two kitties come in and out with me… haha and the crazy dog!
That is hilarious about your cat watching mine! To funny! 😄
What a beautiful orange baby.
I planted mine in fall and takes a looong time. But I am patient.
It does take patience! ☺️
I really just want the pearl garlic! I couldn't find them in the stores anymore & found out they're 1st year elephant garlic 😂. I've planted them now & will use half as mono bulb then wait for the 2nd year for the split cloves.
I love that 🤣
I’ve found your channel very informative and timely, while we’re in the Pacific Northwest. Thanks so much!
Thank you as well! 😃
Me, too!
Really informative. You said baking soda in the video but the product you used in the video seemed to be baking powder. Did you mean to say baking powder in the video? Thanks. Happy Holidays!
Oh holy cow! It is supposed to be baking soda. I was in a hurry to get the video done, looks like I grabbed baking powder, not soda! 😂Well, you’re observant! Thank you for bring that to my attention.
And…. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to come! 😊
Mixing baking soda which is basic and humic acid which is an acid is basically resulting in a chemical reaction with each other and degrade each other's properties....i don't think itll have the same effect on the garlic once the chemicals have been degraded. You should do seperate rinses of baking soda and humic acid so the chemicals actually reach the garlic before being adultered
Great information Ali.
Glad you liked it
Interesting. First time planting garlic and added 2 elephant garlic cloves. The elephant garlic was planted Oct and this April - only 6 months (not 1.5yr) and 1 of 2 already has a scape on it. So it sounds from your video it is possible that it doesn't need that 2nd year/ growing season? 8B Oregon.
I have had mine ready in as early as 10 months only once in all the years I've grown it. That year was very dry and mild. I have a friend in California that hers always is ready with only one growing season and yet another friend up north that always takes two growing seasons. It does interest me as well as to how different it can be. Let me know how yours turns out this year. Thank you!
Are the stems edible like a regular leek?
yes, they are😃
When you were staggering your garlic it looked like you were planting them just laying down sidways. I also have some smaller garlic that I'd like to plant. I'm planting in containers. Can I plant the smaller garlic bulbs sideways 2 so I could fit more in, or does it have to be planted with a pointy side stait?
In the video I was just placing them where I was going to plant them. All garlic should be planting root end down and pointy end up for the best success! 😃
@@Alisorganics thank you so much! I'm sorry I'm brand new to gardening. Lol 🙂💯
No need to apologize! You’re learning and that’s awesome!!!😎
