I usually plant garlic around the middle of October, but since it’s been so warm, I opted to wait a bit. I probably should have waited even longer, but I hated the idea of having to plant it in inclement weather (since the weather has been so very nice), so I did it yesterday. Hopefully it won’t grow too much until the cold weather arrives, assuming it ever does (one weather model I saw said that it was going to be another mild winter). With the exception of a few minor wrap-up tasks, my gardening activities have come to a close for the year.
