Oh my, Garlic garlic garlic

The top picture shows part, yes part of our garlic harvest. Its a mix of white and Lautrec garlic which we buy from France for a few euros a kilo. Some were planted in raised beds and some directly into traditional beds in very early October as a very relaxed trial to see which performed best. There was no difference really so next year they will go into traditional beds to keep the raised beds free early season.

The second picture shows the Lautrec garlic top and the white garlic bottom, with a 10p piece to give you scale of the size of the bulbs. they garlic is in the tunnel at present finishing its drying and will them be plaited as gifts for family and for the kitchen and the rest will have the foilage chopped off and stored in trays.
