Garlic Planting Time – Russian Red and Siberian

Northerngardens — Thu, 11 Nov 2010 03:12:25 +0000

We planted some Russion Red and Siberian Garlic last week. Hopefully it turns out as well as last year. http://northerngarden.wordpress.com/2010/07/08/siberian-garlic-2010/

We planted approx 50 cloves so our harvest will be a little larger in 2011. Thanks to my sister in-law for picking me up the Russion red at a local farmer’s market.
