      What’s the best way to keep the garlic 🧄 fresh the longest?

    • @Suprchica
      @Suprchica Před rokem

      Can you make a video in how to deal with common garden (unwanted) critters, like neighborhood cats, skunks, groundhogs, squirrels, mice/rats,and even deer? Just ideas on what a home gardener may use (short of bb’s or electric fencing) thanks! 💚🦉

    • @wuzupbuzz
      @wuzupbuzz Před rokem

      Please grow solo garlic . Single clove round ping pong ball size . Only ever bought it in Japan supermarket, can’t find it in USA . Other videos are long winded and non explanatory. Culinary pleasing in Asian cuisine , an easy one and done peeling and best when making fried garlic chips . Also Japanese cuisine use garlic stem/shoots/neck , Sold in bunches like at the veggie market ( but always found to be straight !lol). Texture like asparagus/ broccoli stem crunch , mild garlic tastes so no need to add actual garlic cloves , can finely chopped and used like spring onions for garnish . I want to have solos in my garden , please try and let us know how … the easiest and best way please .

    Never planted in the rain? Here in the PNW I've done so much gardening of all kinds in the rain, since that's what it does half the year here. I have a black wind breaker w/hood that's water proof that keeps me from getting soaked at least in some places, and doesn't show the mud. Thanks for the video! 💕🌲 Loved the green garlic sniffing slowmo's. Super cute!

  • @bigsidable

  • @detoxwithtessa1568
    @detoxwithtessa1568 Před rokem +10

    Tip for removing the paper on small cloves: put them in a bowl and put another bowl on that bowl (creating a sphere) and shake. Steel bowls work the best, but any bowls will work.

  • @staceymoniz
    @staceymoniz Před rokem +3

    First of all I love that Kevin has a knee pad on his right knee and keeps kneeling on the left... second, your entire garden is clearly loving all the attention you give it and the rain makes it stunning... third, I am one of those folks who thought I needed to freeze the garlic and killed it instead... I'm in Hawai`i, tough to grow here but I feel inspired to try again later in the year. Love you both!

    @SilverSaabArc Před rokem +5

    I loved the smelling of the green garlic, I often do that with my garlic and basil lol. I won't feel so weird now... I quit digging my garlic up a while ago, and exclusively just use the greens in a permaculture bed of shallots and garlic, it's just quicker and easier to get that flavor from the greens without washing and peeling. The sets lean over and drop on the ground, and I just throw compost over it in the fall. They literally plant themselves!

  • @Gkrissy
    @Gkrissy Před rokem +21

    10 years ago, I bought 2 heads of Elephant Garlic at a fundraiser. I planted those cloves that fall, grew them on, and them have been growing their descendants since! Seriously the most rewarding crop and not to mention easiest.
    I love that dibber and happen to have a broken shovel that I can use to make my own!!

    Love you guys. I was in San Diego just this week for business, the weather was so atypical with the rain, I wish I could have stopped by to say ‘hey’. My garlic from last year is coming up now, I’m in 7b on the east coast. I will add, I plant it to keep animal pests away in addition to harvesting.

    • @jennhoff03
      @jennhoff03 Před rokem +1

      Right? I'm in Houston and I purposely didn't plant corn in the ground bc it rains so much and everything gets fungus. Well, this year it didn't rain for months. Then it did once, and not again since. It's weird! Definitely could have planted some stuff!

    Great video in the rain! I plan on planting my garlic the weekend of Oct 22nd here in Virginia zone 7A. My garlic will have been in the fridge about 2 months from that date. I grew garlic for the first time last year and was very pleased with the harvest. My wife wants me to grow more yellow onions next season and stagger the harvest, so I'm going to try overwintering several onion varieties with a small hoop frame and plastic. This week we are getting five days in the low to mid 30s so that will be my first test. Keep Planting!!

    7:40 In cold climate zones you plant the garlic the same : 1-2 inches down, the ground will freeze in the winter but the hard-neck garlic is fine because it has protective chemistry, much like anything that survives winter.

I planted a few tiny cloves few weeks ago testing my soil for the main crop I plan to put in the ground in November. Greens coming up. Zone 6a. My garden is keeping me young. Again thanks. In my 70's and watching many channels. P. s. besides. This is keeping me out of trouble. lol

  • @MattR759
    @MattR759 Před rokem +1

    Jacque, you should get a longer rod, like a standard shovel, and put a foot push at the 4” or 6” height so you can make those holes faster, with body weight, and while standing.
