Cricketk's garlic x 8
Allium sativum

Have been pulling garlic out for the past fortnight.

Omnomnomnom.

Delicious.

Cut the leaves off the garlic shoots and ate them in risotto.

According to what I’ve read, this should give them the will power to grow nice big garlic bulbs. I certainly hope so. The scapes were Yummy.

I was very pleased on Monday morning to see that these are well and truly growing with nice thick stalks. There’s been so much rain and I’ve been home so infrequently during daylight hours that they’ve made it to nearly 10cm tall without me noticing.

I’ve never grown garlic before, so I have no idea what else they are likely to do, nor how big they are going to get.

How exciting!
