Fergus, Ontario

Put ours in last week.


I was late this year by about 2 weeks. I usually like them
to have sprouted 2 inches or so before the cold weather
really hits. Some may question that but every year that I've
done it I've gotten larger and stronger garlic for some
reason. Don't ask me to explain it, 'cause I can't.


How cold does it get? Do you have consistent snow cover?
