On the Gold Coast at present try to buy organic Australian garlic at the farmers markets. I just bought some in Noosa, so they should have it on the Coast.

Hi Steve, I'm in Canberra and I didn't peel the individual cloves.

Steve, no you don't need to peel garlic cloves before planting, just break up the head and plant individual cloves. Paula, try any specialty shop like spice shops, asian grocers, delicatessens, markets etc, you should be able to get decent local stuff for $30/kg or less. I have an arrangement with a small local supermarket who sell local garlic. They keep all of the loose cloves from the bottom of the garlic bin for me to buy less than 1/2 price.

Is it really necessary to peel the garlic cloves before planting?

I have some extra garlic ' THE PEARLS OF LIFE" for sale. This year my garlic seed is large and still tastes beautiful. Prepare beds now with blood and bone and lime. Planting can take place now for the next 4 weeks. This garlic seed originally was grown in queensland so can handle warm conditions as well. Mainly my garlic loves to be grown out in the open. Love the frosts , sun and water. and just love and care. Email me if you want to buy a few gaurenteed garlic seed. Australian Golden Garlic the 'Pearls of Life.'
