>>1290269Yes, but from seed, garlic takes a couple years to produce good bulbs. It is better to buy garlic bulbs, separate them and plant them. You normally plant them in the fall and they grow roots through the winter then harvest in spring or at the beginning of the summer. At that time you can divide them for storage or replanting. These methods vary according to garlic type.
