when did you plant those groin?

I got them in the ground the end of October. I planted 8 cloves, but the straw cover was too packed down and only three made it up through in the spring. I'll probably plant more next time around

Thanks, I've picked up a poster at each of the events I saw live. I also have the Shogun/JBJ from NJ and the Marquart/Rick Story from Pittsburgh. (Nate got kicked out of the UFC a day before the event and Charlie Brenneman stepped in to face and defeat Story. Also, Pat Barry got KTFO by a Hail Mary right when he was utterly dominating Chieck Congo)

I felt bad for Pat that night,

Did you bend the tops over on the garlic?

Okay, I must have done something wrong with mine. I planted 5 bulbs, all came up and grew to height of about 6 inches, then all five died. Two months later one of them started to re-grow. It got to nearly a foot in height and then it died, again.

I am so confused as to what I could have done.

I broke the scapes off, but other than that I just let it be. Should I have done something to the tops?

some people will bend the tops over when it's about 12 inches so it focuses on bulb production, removing the scapes does the same thing
