Hi

Seperate them out and plant like Onions, But Im sure I will be corrected but
you are a bit late Garlic likes to be overwintered and have a few hard
frosts., Dont know why but thats what I have been told so have done that
and have over 100 healthy looking garlic plants growing awy..


Thanks Yes, I thought I was slightly late ... but I'm working on the
assumption better in the soil than the plastic bag at this stage. The
plastic bag being particularly unhelpful, suggesting at the same time
that I start planting in February, and wait until danger of frost has
passed (huh ?).

I've reclaimed a patch of land in the garden 15' x 15'. It's never been
cultivated, but I've had garden waste on it for 15 years, & it did grow
a lovely crop of nettles & brambles (now dug out, fingers crossed) so I
figure the soil must be fairly OK & this is the year to start *doing*
something with it. Given the amount there was to shift off it though
it's a small miracle I'm ready (and fit) to start planting anything this
side of August bank holiday ...
