Getting ready for spring planting

[Broncosfan]

Baglady You didn't say why the garlic was a failure. Did it rot, just not grow large enough? Garlic planted in the fall does a lot better than spring garlic. Raised beds are also a lot better with good soil. I use thin plastic roll mulch which help control weeds. I also us a piece of wood lattice to space my garlic. When planting I add a small amount of organic fertilizer in the hole before planting. I don't know it wouldn't grow in NE Ohio I'm in SE Ohio and it does well. Might also be the kind of garlic.
