Garlic Bulbs Whole, Early Purple Italian Garlic Bulbs, 4 Bulbs, This Garlic is Ready for Eating or Planting, Cool Beans N Sprouts

PLANT THEM AS SOON AS YOU GET THEM!I am going to start by admitting that I sat on these bulbs for a little too long. I lost about 1/3 of them to moisture damage (but that’s on me). However, what I was able to plant has been doing very well! (See my photos of sprouts)TIME OF YEAR I NORMALLY PLANTIn my area of the south, I normally plant garlic at the beginning of October. This time it was more like the third week of October. That should still be early enough for the plants to get established before it gets very cold.GREAT COMPANION PLANT FOR KALE – BOTH WHILE GROWING AND WHILE COOKINGThis year I am planting garlic as a companion plant for my Red Russian Kale. Even though freezing temps will kill bugs wanting to dine on my kale, the garlic will protect it even more (bugs hate the smell). If you look very carefully at my photo of multiple garlic sprouts, you’ll be able to make out some kale sprouts. I threw the kale seeds all over, but when they get larger, I’ll plant them more neatly between garlic stalks.Plus, garlic is not just a good companion to kale while growing… it makes a great skillet companion when sautéing it too!SOFT NECK GARLIC FOR THE SOUTH – RESEARCH WHETHER SOFT NECK OR HARD NECK IS BEST FOR YOUR AREAAs a side note, here in the south, I always plant soft neck variety garlic. You might want to do some research about what kind of garlic is best for your area (soft neck or hard neck).FINAL THOUGHTS – VERY REASONABLE PRICE FOR A GENEROUS SIZE PRODUCTOverall, I am very pleased with this product. The price was reasonable, and the quantity was generous (which was fortunate since I bungled planting). I will try to update this review come late spring when it will be time to harvest.

They’re pretty and look healthy. Some of the cloves were huge! That makes me happy! They’re planted and covered next year we’ll know for sure, but for now I’m thinking two thumbs up👍🏼👍🏼

I ordered four different varieties of garlic bulbs from four different sellers and all of them rooted except this one. These are not viable bulbs.Happy to try again if the seller is willing to replace. Otherwise, I would recommend for eating only as they are not suited for planting.

Arrived in time to get planted prior to the snow started to fall... I cannot wait to see it growing in the spring!! Bulbs look healthy, nice size and had many large cloves to separate and plant!

I just planted them and I Won’t have results until next spring So I can’t really give a full review until Then.

Planted and growing

good size, will be great in my garden

1 1/2 of my 4 garlic head was bad and rotten. In useable.I did how ever plant the rest of them.Probably won’t order them again.Very disappointed that whom ever selected them did not inspect closer.
