RE: It's Garlic Harvest Time in the Food Forest!
Despite using so much garlic in our cooking, I've never seen a garlic plant! They look nothing like what I would have expected... more like leeks? Anyway, when you hang them up to dry, do you have a special room for them with warm dry air blowing on them... or just a regular room?

@bengy you can grow garluc easily even in your small garden. I dry mine under my backyard gazebo! Dry plus airflow.

Oh, I will definitely think about setting space for it!
Thank you for featuring me in your curation contest! Garlic looks very much like leeks. They are super easy to grow and requires very little garden space. Our house has two floors. The first floor is more like a garage. Our main living space is on the second floor. We hang our harvested garlic on the first floor/garage of our house. We put a fan on it for air circulation. No special room needed. Some people just hang them in a spare closet with a fan. You can even cure garlic hanging outdoors as long as it is away from sunlight and rain. Give garlic growing a try. I bet you will be shocked with how easy it is to grow your own garlic.
