I am always in search of some new thing to plant -- and as I have an extra raised bed and follow the blog of wizbang Kimball I figured I would try my hand at garlic.

Generally garlic is planted in the fall.  This is because it needs a cold treatment to do well.  BUT... If you have a long growing season like we do here in the South, you can get away with planting in late February or early March.  I decided to try it so my bulbs may not be as big as they would be if I timed it properly, but I won't let that discourage me.

I don't know how much you want to plant of garlic, but each bulb has several cloves and each clove will produce a bulb so basically each pound of garlic you plant will yield between 4-8 pounds of garlic at the end of the season.
