I haven't used regular straw before but in prior years I have left it in place and let the garlic grow up through it.The straw helps to keep the weeds down.<br /><br />Jo,<br /><br />Our favorite way to use them is either fresh in place of basil in a pesto or grilled with olive oil and salt. <br /><br />Bill,<br /><br />to be honest I no longer know which varieties I am planting. A few years ago I got a variety pack from SSE and planted most of them. I however neglected to dry them separately. So I probably have a few varieties in there but figure that since I plant the cloves that perform best I will eventually have just one variety and it will be the one best suited to my garden. I will just have no idea what variety it actually is. "Benign Neglect" in action.<br />HeheFrustrated Farmer Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08367331507586316368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773238771744718682.post-28821846172596495422009-12-03T12:32:18.723-08:002009-12-03T12:32:18.723-08:00Hey, just wondering what type of garlic did you pl...Hey, just wondering what type of garlic did you plant? I was watching a gardening show and the person they were featuring had dozens of different kinds of garlic. Apparently his lot was rather pungent.
