Beautiful! I was wondering about how to grow garlic. I had ne left in the bag&it was in good shape, color, scent. Thank you for your timely help.
A seed garlic (not garlic seeds, garlic bulbs to separate into individual cloves) kit I bought says to plant in early spring (2-4 weeks after last frost) for mid-summer harvest. Garlic prefers to grow in cooler temperatures. Harvest when leaves turn brown. A Google search says 8-9 months.
You sure you don’t mean 8-9 weeks?
@Joules Opia ASMR I’m sure. If you just want the greens to add flavor to salads and such, 8-9 weeks would be fine. If you want to harvest actual heads of garlic, 8-9 months.
Plant garlic in the fall..
In the tropics you chill you garlic bulbs in the fridge for about 4 weeks then plant them, you harvest in about 4 to 5 months. You want softneck varieties of garlic for warmer climates.
In mid-USA we plant several hundred garlic cloves in November and harvest the heads in August. They’re the only pretty thing growing throughout the winter so we give them the best spot.
There was no mention of the kind of lighting or sun/shade is best suited for the soaking and growing of the garlic. A very nice video.
Fantastic for those of us without garden spots. Plant one bottle and then another in five days. Super cheap. And I love garlic greens. 😋 Endless garlic always at your fingertips. I do this with green onions too. You can get three or four cuttings from each green onion in a glass of water. They just keep growing the tops. Chop them off and cook and they grow back in a week.
actually I replace water and give some plant hydroponic food
That sounds great but what does the garlic say in this matter? Would it not want to have a relationship with the sun, soil worms manure etcetera before it gets munched every five days. We are truly here to not be part of the landscape but 🔨 the one we see best. I wonder if we this to humans this will be acceptable. I place mine in the dirt in my front grass and over time I rip the fruit and keep the seed for next season. I am not being a killjoy I hope simply curious about how a garlic life has been handled.

@Winnie Thuo I believe we should consider the feelings of animals, but I don’t understand the concept of plants having feelings or a mind to care about sunshine and soil with worms.
@AbbaJoy1 Ok may be I got a little carried away but having come to a realisation that all living things are living and growing up with nature I saw the smallest plant navigate their way to towards soaking sunlight, and plants performing so much better when they are grown where worms have taken time and mixed other dead organic material to make the soil to make manure, food for the plants that we then consume made me think a little more. There are certain processes that need to happen before we humans, part of the cycle play our role which is not just eating the stuff but making sure we allow natural processes to happen even when they don’t resist as we take them to our menus. I also think they give us more nutrients this way.
I’m a garlic fanatic. Did something similar , with less steps but I had no problem growing my own garlic. Yummy.
Tableú no
@Tableú they come out when u sit it on the water
I noticed after 2 months of buying garlic, there was green growing off the top. So I took the cloves with green and put them in a small cup and watered them every 2 days and they grew perfectly.
Hi. Why the rice husks? To trap moisture? Bio decay?
que legal! muito bom!
На скорости 1.5 ролик смотрится гораздо веселее. Автору уважение за труд и аккуратность. Я просто разделяю чеснок на зубчики и в зиму сажаю на грядку, вокруг кустов и деревьев, между кустиками клубники. Но это когда есть огород.
Muito legal 👏
I tried it and it’s so amazing to see how much it’s growing so quickly and I dig it ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Very cool 😊
I’d use the tops rather than the bulb much later, it’s refreshing and not as pungent as the cloves, but a great idea to replicate, thank yiufor sharing!
Maravilhoso ♥️
Obrigado por suas palavras gentis
Você é divertido de se comunicar com 💐
É um prazer conhecê-lo.
❤Lindo trabalho!👏👏👏
As many have said, plant in the fall and harvest next Aug/Sept. Yeah, that worked great for us until I didn’t have time to do the fall harvest one year. Lots of garlic next year but without being separated they are all tiny. Tried to recover by planting the tiny cloves but mostly more tiny cloves. We have a few garlic plants that have held on over the intervening several years that keep coming back. I’m harvesting some now and this technique might just be the ticket to get back to full sized bulbs to plant in the fall. Also, planning to experiment with an LED grow light this winter and this might be a way to grow/start plants for harvesting greens over the winter. The idea of aquarium gravel instead of bottles sounds good. Or maybe use a rectangular plastic bottle so the level is constant and you don’t have to create supports to keep the bottles from rolling around.
I’d add that this technique could be used by someone in an apartment that doesn’t have the luxury of planting outdoors.
Stok cold brew coffee bottles are rounded corner flat squares, and would stay on one side. 😁
Yy
Leave the small cloves in the ground to grow for another year
Ever thought about making videos ?? o:
@Divine Campos yeh have u
Using the greens just like you would use chives sounds like a wonderful way to impart garlic flavor into a variety of foods.
Scapes (garlic leaf) are spicy hot. Delicious & used often by professional cooks for garnishing AND taste.
very good work
What a great idea! I didn’t get a chance to plant garlic this past fall. I’m trying this today.
OkieRanchWife ~I also usually plant (giant Red Hardneck) garlic in October-November but never got a chance to do it last fall either but I still have last year’s harvest. Like you, I want to try this method now as well. Someone said to use square instead of round plastic bottles so they do not roll around and also the water stays more constant on the top hole.
~I have only one query :: In this video above, why does this person “cut about 1/4” inch off the top of each garlic toe” with a knife.?? Is this necessary to do.??
@OkieRanchWife, A Banquet of Consequences ~I see, thank you! Did ‘you’ also cut the tops off of your garlic.??
I agree seeing final crop would be helpful
I tried it and it’s so amazing to see how much it’s growing so quickly and I dig it 😘😌🤗
I hope you had a beautiful day.??!!!!!!!
Much easier to just plant the individual cloves directly into the ground or pots. Transplanting the garlic may not be as successful.
@Mike Gorski can you tell me please, what is the stuff that he sprinkles on top of his soil??
@MysticFIREFLY rice hulls. totally not necessary and esoteric.
This is effective for indoor gardening specially on rooftops. Very informative and beneficial to city dwellers. Kudos to the sharer.
Guess the main purpose is to weed out ones that will rot and ensure they are already emerged out of the soil but if you have a big enough scale, this would just be a lot of extra work since with good cloves over 95% will generally sprout when planted direct in the ground
Sounds great 😊
I was very excited at first thinking that I’d get the end results from the plastic bottles without using any soil!! There’s no soil here so a shame I can’t grow my own garlic. I might try the leaves though!!
