The early garlics (Tzan, Shantung, Uzbek Turban) are getting huge! Seems like they grew a couple of inches last week...

 Now it's time to do some weeding and then put on the drip lines

Persian Star garlic is still small.

Getting ready for the first Boulder Farmer's Market Coming Up On April 5th

Things are growing- but a bit slowly because of the cold nights....

Things are growing like crazy in the greenhouse. Lettuces, kale and onions will be ready for the first market April 5th. Maybe a couple of salad bowls, too.

Exposed garlic

On Feb. 25th

The middle row of my main garlic field had a lot of garlic that heaved out of the ground this winter. This photo was taken on Feb 25th, before I pushed them back into the soil. The heaving was caused by extreme cold (-16 degrees) and wetter than usual soil (from September flooding). On top of that we had our usual high winds after the snow melted. The largest cloves were affected the most.
Most of the cloves had roots that were still semi-attached to the soil. These ones should be fine since the garlic cloves will actually pull themselves back into the soil. Others had no roots, or the roots were totally exposed. Most of these garlics will still grow, but I expect the bulbs to be smaller.
The heaved up garlic is about 10% of the crop, so hopefully the other 90% of the harvest will still be bountiful!
My smaller field has early garlic with about 3-4" of growth that looks beautiful.

Same row March 21st

What a difference a month makes!
Look at the updated photo taken on March 21st! Almost all the garlic is back to normal.
