Planting out vernalised garlic Tips for the subtropics warmer areas

Am trying out a few different methods of growing garlic this season to see if I can improve on previous years crops.. The garlic being used has been saved from the past two years crops..  As we are in the sub tropics & dont get the chill that other areas get to help kick their garlic off I decided to vernalise (chill) the majority of our seed garlic..



Am glad I decided to as they are already out preforming the traditionally planted cloves... Think that this will be my preferred method of preparing seed garlic from now on..
Most have gone into the soil, some into the aquaponics & the rest weree planted into the straw bale bed out the front...

Have a great one All...
