My garlic is about the same as saddad's.  I'm trying an early variety called sprint this year, and I'll follow it up with a late dormancy one after Christmas.

My garlic and onions are just starting to sprout. They went in about a week and a half ago.

Don't worry flowerof,
If you eat them - don't worry, you'll be out in the spring!
