Much bigger garlic this year after deepening the garden bed last fall. The garlic roots went quite deep. Last year the roots would have encountered dense clay 5-6" down.
I should have bought extra seed garlic last fall as I had room to comfortably plant at least 50% more in that bed. The year before I started with 1 garlic that was given to me by family. Then planted one and half last fall from that harvest which gave me 11 this year. I'll aim to plant at least 16 this fall.
