It is my 1st garlic bed. It must be 5 x 7. I hope that is a lot of garlic. This weather has me pretty confused. I didn't want to plant to early and have them come up too early and die. So I waited. Two days ago I checked and the soil wasn't frozen. Today was supposed to be a nice day. Garlic planting was my to do list. Well it was about 45 degrees F and windy! Felt like 36 and the soil was frozen. I had to stand on a fork to poke holes in the soil. After all the garlic was planted, I tossed homegrown compost personally turned by the chickens on top and then hay. After the picture I put a board on top of the bed to prevent the hay from blowing around.
