shazzbat muttered:

I plan to plant my cloves in pots to start them off, then plant out with the
rootball when they are 2"-3" tall, thus avoiding gaps in the rows where some
doesn't make it, also this will allow me to plant them in newly weeded soil,
giving the crop a chance to get ahead.

Any reasons why I shouldn't do this? The variety is Fokhagyma.

TIA

I read somewhere that they need some hard frosts to develop... so should
ideally be planted in November.
