RE: Side Project | Part 2. Things Are Nearing Completion

in Game Development3 years ago

Not to get off topic of your game article here but today I was chopping garlic thinking about planting some in the garden this year I was making a mental note to myself to make sure to pick some up to put in the freezer....then I started wondering if you knew it had to winter over to start growing in the spring. If you don't plant it in the fall freezing it in the freezer works just as well.

I never heard of that.

I broke off some garlics cloves and just put them into some dirt last month for my first time trying them. They did sprout.

Not to butt in, but, I leave mine in the ground all year long and it comes up in the spring, year after year. Less to maintain or have to put out at a certain time. It works great! Hi, @enjar! Just keeping up on your posts!

I don't get snow. Outside of a couple nights a year that might get down to freezing that is about it.

Already got a bunch of stuff growing for this season :)

That's good news. Hopefully wintering over won't be a problem. I've been putting mine in the freezer first for a couple days after reading what's the best way to grow garlic and it instructed they had to be planted in the fall to winter over first or you could put them in the freezer to obtain the same effect. I guess you can keep me posted how it turns out, maybe I won't have to end up freezing them first.
