Growing Garlic

I have grown three crops of garlic, the first small but very tasty - laster about 3 months, well worth the initial investment.. It's best to use the largest cloves so you get a larger bulb. Make sure you have rich organic compost. This year I bought about 2 kilos of the best organic elephant garlic from my local food coop. It was grown locally so I expect it will be happy here. To save money plant it in a community garden with a group of people and share the cost and the yield.
