The garlic rounds were harvested and set to dry for planting in the Fall of 2017. Each round will produce four cloves which will used for a main crop in 2018. The 2017 crop has not been harvested yet. Six scape seed heads were wrapped in gauze to collect the seeds as they mature. One seed head produces many seeds around 50 plus. The seeds fall out if not trapped. This method means all of the main crop can be utilized instead of a portion being used for planting for the next year’s crop.
