Are you expecting Vampire round for tea ?

We like garlic but never thought of growing it as don’t eat it everyday.

We cook a lot from scratch, and often in bulk for freezing..

I see it as this has grown who am I to stop it, prefer to encourage it suits me..???

Besides that I want to do it to see the out come, might not grow to good for all I know..

as far as vampires coming around for tea, hope not ??‍♂️?‍♀️⚰️?

I take it youve never grown it before and when you returned home it was there so to speak?

As far as I understand it planted around autumn times and is grown by planting clove/s rather from seed if I remember from my grandads days. So its not appeared by a bird dropping a seed, have you or your neighbours thrown out old garlic cloves that have grown. if not its wild garlic!

Yes discovered in our little pot we keep garlic in after a while away, nope never grown it before so just seeing if anyone has an interest, as growing plants is a great for people with maybe limited movement or capabilities, even easy for a carer to help out..

Ill be planting them later and see how they go..

Usually as with most things I post here I fish for an interest, if nothing use other forums, funny sometimes how a few replies of interest on one forum, yet pages for months on others..

This is a low strain involvement so gets a priority here..

If not I’ll move on, thanks for the link though..

Oh forgot to mention, I’ll be putting them in a pot now to stop any potential menacing spread ???

That might be a good idea ajn.

We grow mainly sunflowers, basil and other herbs as are daughter enjoys watching them grow. We got a narrowis perspec type thing with holes in the bottom so she can see the stages carrots and the like grow at.

I also grow weed galore and plenty of it ?

The sunflower set in your picture looks interesting.

Wild Garlic is just coming out now. You find it in wet shady areas.

You just cut the leaves above ground, take it home, wash it and use it.

So planted, see what happens now ?..
