Almost ready to harvest the Korean Red and Asian Tempest. Trying to let the garlic dry down a bit. Still getting rain almost everyday. It would be nice for it to dry down a bit. Seems a little stress helps to size up the bulbs. Don't want it dry too much.

We are now open for Advanced Orders for 2009. Get your order in for garlic before July 1st and receive a bonus bulb! Crops are looking good!

I dug around the Siberian and Korean Red. The cloves are forming. In the next 3-5 weeks they will really get going. We will cut back on the watering and all fertilizing has stopped at the beginning of June. It has been an odd spring in CO. Very wet and cool. Temps are below normal by about 5-10 degrees. Some days even more drastic swings.

A whole mess of scapes. These are good eating. Throw them in a stew or stir-fry. Also, eat them raw or use like a green onion. Still pulling weeds. It has been a odd spring and so far early summer. The weather is cool and cloudy. We could use some heat. The porcelains like the heat. Although nice not to have to turn on the water.

Scapes on the Porcelains have popped. We will stop fertilizing at this point. Water and weeding. We have about 2 inches of mulch down. Helps a lot to keep the weeds down.

We have had a wet spring and mainly at this point keeping up with the weeds. Also, if we find a plant that is not growing as well as the others we will pull it just to keep any pest or disease out. We will be opening soon for Advanced Orders.

We put bone meal down before this snow hit last night. You never can tell this time of year how the weather will turn. Fortunately the garlic has good roots down as you can see in this photo it is about 8-10 inches high. This photo is Romanian Red.
