Well, Columbus day marks the traditional hardneck planting time here
in the eastern US which means of course that I haven't done it yet.

Got the bed prepared though, and will crack them and stick them in on
Saturday.

I decided to expand and try a few new ones this year.

I've got German Red, Music Pink, Chesnok Red, Persian Star,
Romanian Red, Spanish Roja, Red Rezan, Siberian, and Russian Red.

Anyone else?

I planted some Kettle River Giant garlic yesterday. The soil was
pretty good but I still mixed in a few inches of mushroom compost. It
was a warm sunny day here in Western NC - perfect to be out there
doing some late season planting and garden clean up.
