Just harvested the rest of my elephant garlic. Replanted lot of little bulblets . All of them had at lest 2 on them. It’s the most amazing crop of garlic I’ve ever grown. 5 bulbs weighed in at 1.2kg. I’ve reduced that to 800g as it includes the stalks. Thank you veggie for the cloves.
Now hanging in the wood store to dry.

They look great, SC. Don't forget to keep some bigger cloves for planting as well as the little tiddlers.
You have to thank Scarlet for these, not me, as she sent me my starter cloves several years ago. Thank you Scarlet. Big Grin

For some reason my elephant garlic is rubbish this year? I think the dry weather earlier in the year did for it?
