Oh that sure sounds like fun times are in your future! I recently was persuaded to purchase a garlic press. I have now been enjoying the immense pleasure of fresh pressed garlic...However, I believe I would enjoy it even more if said garlic was free :) Plus, my mom always grew fresh garlic and I believe it would be a cool project!
Ooh, I got derailed once I got to the garlic press part. I love fresh pressed garlic, and it's super easy to grow. I have an entire crop doing its thing underneath a protective coat of snow. We plant in October and I usually harvest in July once the scapes die back. It's so good! This year I was able to grow enough to have garlic to eat and bulbs to save for next planting, so this coming year's crop will cost me a big fat ZERO! I know that's music your ears, lol!
I am super looking forward to reading an Old Guy grows garlic series! Maybe even some video footage, you know, with titles like When Scapes Attack ha ha.
