You made me feel better about not getting my garlic in yet. I am in Wisconsin zone 5 and the next 8 days are all still in the 60s

There’s still plenty of time for sure! 😊

I had no idea you lived in the same state, let alone the same zone as me. So thankful to finally find someone gardening and preserving that I can learn from in relation to where I live. I am loving your Freeze Fresh book I just got this week as well.

Great Job Karl!! I would have pulle the tape out as well. I’m planting this fall first time. We live in Elgin Illinois. Wish us luck. Can we use fall leaves and yard mulch over instead of hay? Great video, wish I could have chickens too, nope can’t. 👍🤓

@wholefedhomestead 10 ай бұрын

Thanks! If you use leaves they need to be chopped up, otherwise they form an impenetrable mat the garlic can’t come up through.

hi, I live in New England and I brought back some Garlic from Portugal can I plant these inside my home in a sunny room or should they stay cold through the winter outside?

@nickdugal9305 Жыл бұрын

Love your videos! Question: could I use organic garlic from a store?

@wholefedhomestead Жыл бұрын

You can but I absolutely would not. Garlic produced for seed/the purpose of planting is certified to be disease-free. Garlic from the store could be full of disease you will introduce to your soil and never be able to get rid of.

I’m just across the border in Ontario Canada, if can’t find seedless straw what alternative, frost cover or regular flowerbed mulch, most have dye for colour, I use mocha . Afraid of grass clippings due to weeds.

Greetings from Wisconsin - zone 5a (used to be zone 4ish) I am a new subscriber and have loved all your videos so far. Your method of planting garlic is exactly how we plant ours. We have had several years at the county fair with grand champion garlic entries. There’s only one problem, finding straw that has not been sprayed. We also grow organic, heirloom, and non-gmo garden seedlings. Is there a source you can share? Or a way to search for it? This has been a forever problem we have dealt with.

@wholefedhomestead Күн бұрын

I'd ask in local Facebook farming groups. We get ours from a small local dairy farmer. And thanks so much! 🥰

Curious about the little tiller he uses. Looking for one for my little garden and it looked like it did a pretty good job. What brand is it?

How deep to plant garlic? In northern Michigan. Have had some freezing but ground is quite workable

Since you are planting in mid October, what month or how long afterwards will you harvest your seed garlic?

@wholefedhomestead 8 ай бұрын

Usually in July/August

@lizanneberger8580 9 ай бұрын

What kind of soil amendments do you add. ? Bone meal etc?

@wholefedhomestead 9 ай бұрын

We only use compost and deciduous leaves.

@pilsplease7561 5 ай бұрын

Bone Meal And Blood meal at planting are best, then in the spring when they start growing again water with fish emulsion every other week.

@skee6706 9 ай бұрын

What else can be used as a mulch ? The farmers around here are spray happy and there is no hay available that is not sprayed.

@wholefedhomestead 8 ай бұрын

You can use chopped leaves (they have to be chopped up!) or pine needles.

@pilsplease7561 5 ай бұрын

Its more of a regulatory thing a lot of sprays are done in the cases of some crops to stop them from getting stuff that can make you sick, peanuts for example can get a toxin that can kill you. Garlic is almost always sprayed with systemic fungicides commercially as rust is not a joke.

@mmiller9704 10 ай бұрын

Dumb question but does garlic need to be watered? The space I want to plant the garlic in doesn’t have water but I can take water over to it. Do you have another video on how and when to harvest it?

@wholefedhomestead 10 ай бұрын

I do have that video, yes! And yes garlic needs weekly water.

Can I use Pine Straw on my Garlic Plantings?

@wholefedhomestead 2 күн бұрын

I haven't ever tried it, but I think it's a good option. Better than leaves or hay...

@Diane-sx8mf Жыл бұрын

Is this straw or grass hay? Our straw is yellow?

@wholefedhomestead Жыл бұрын

This is fairly yellow too… I believe it’s oat straw.

@kelene7713 5 ай бұрын

What exactly is the method to determine where you put the yellow flags? Just trying to figure out what they represent exactly as I am an extreme novice gardener!😂

@wholefedhomestead 5 ай бұрын

Those are just to mark the row so we plant in a straight line 😂

@dreamsingr 9 ай бұрын

Can I ask, do you plant Garlic before or after the first killing frost and how long before/after do you plant? Thank you!

@wholefedhomestead 9 ай бұрын

It’s definitely after, but that’s not what we look at to know when to plant.

@dreamsingr 9 ай бұрын

@@wholefedhomestead So what do you look for? I'm up here in zone 4 and they say were gonna have a warmed than normal winter. It's gonna be my first time growing Garlic and I wanna make sure I do it right. Thank you!
