Planting Garlic Cloves
I live in New England, East Coast, US, and we have longer, colder winters. We don't have mild seasons, like California, for instance, where the majority of US Grown Garlic is harvested. That white garlic, from Cali, is typically, softneck garlic. Softneck is both milder, and also, lasts on the shelves, longer. Commercial farmers LOVE that part!
Here in New England, with our deep cold winters, we plant and grow HardNeck Garlic. It has much more flavor, however lasts less on the shelves. If I am lucky, I can store my July harvested garlic, and use it over fall and winter. I can then, also, plant a few cloves, for growing into the next growing season.
In July, I pick garlic about once a week, for a few weeks, until it is ALL harvested.
