Garlic Doing Great



After getting Garlic Seed at the Meeniyan Garlic Festival in February, sowing time came around pretty quick here on the Gippsland Plains. Something that is entirely different to what I’m familiar with is a change in growing seasons since we moved here.

I went for all Turban types this year, rather than stagger my season, so I ended up with Tasmanian Purple, Monaro Red, Wilde Pearl and one bulb of Purple Stripe. My first try was 3 rows in the big garden of Monaro Red, which were up within a week. 

Then the following week I planted everything else, it too was up quick and it’s just a matter of leaving it grow now. A shower or two of rain has it looking pretty damn good.
