Nice try! Except I heard you say to plant the seeds 1/2" to 1", then later you said 1/4" and then the words on the screen said 1" to 1-1/2".

@mywootsgarden: sure it makes seeds! every plant that flowers makes seeds.

@mystic121 if you plant in fall your garlic can come up anytime your ready to use it.

gar;ic is pulled in the summer to store it, so your garlic seed plants if they havent divided dont really need to come out but it may be best to pull them out and condition your soil and respace the plants, so you can leave them in or dig and move or dig and replant in fall, i planted my seeds in spring and i dug up some today :D

what!

garlic doesnt make seeds! the little black seeds are onions or other alliums not garlic.

garlic flowers will make tiny cloves of garlic and they are light in colour, these can be planted like explained in the vid, see my vids for garlic seeds.

If I start garlic from seed do I remove the plant in spring and replant in fall or does it stay in the ground year around for two years? If my garlic planted from cloves have a very small bulb or no seperate cloves can I leave them in the ground for another year or should I remove them in the spring and replant the whole small bulb again in the fall? Thank You
