April 9th 2015 - Planting garlic
The garlic bulbs have been sat in water for a few days now and we have long roots at the bottom and long green shoots at the top that are about 3" high. According to the websites this is when they are best to plant, so we will be going outside later to plant the garlic.
However, most of the websites say that you should plant in august and protect with straw over the winter months so that it is ready to harvest from april/may time. I didn't know this so hopefully it will still grow, but we can plant more later in the year.
