Sensational Veg :-) I had huge problems getting mine braided last year until I later realised that I had hardneck garlic not softnecks, so they were all stiff and wouldn't braid nicely. This year I planted all softnecks, but my crop is absolutely dismal :-( I'm so upset, I *love* garlic. I guess it's because it got so hot so early this year that the bulbs stopped developing, so they are mostly pretty tiny :-(
Thank you, Julie! This is the first year I have a really good crop of garlic. So, keep on trying. I hope you get a ripper crop next time! We love garlic, too. It had been rationed the last month or so, as we had to make the last head last as long as possible. Good luck!
Harald, der Zwiebel ist auch nichts besonderes hier. Aber der Knoblauch freut mich schon sehr! Und es ist noch einiges mehr im Garten. :)
I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)

How clever! That looks fantastic. Now I'll have to try it on mine.
