Incredibly easy to grow, garlic is a delight for the kitchen as well as providing a source of fresh cloves that can also be used for medicinal purposes as a preventative treatment for colds and influenza.
Each clove of garlic in a clump is actually a miniature bulb that can be planted straight into a suitable growing medium (potting mix or soil) at this time of year.
It will then start to grow and multiply into a new clump. Feeding the plant regularly with a complete liquid fertilizer will ensure that bulb harvest is maximized and apart from that there is not a great deal else required for success.
Harvest the plants when the flowers finish in summer.
