  • Garlic query

    I bought some Chinese single clove garlic in Lidl recently and was wondering - if I planted some would the only grow into a single clove or would it grow normally (split into lots of cloves)?

    If they're harvested in winter, they produce rounds, immature heads. As the garlic starts to form a head, it swells first, then divides. If you pull it before it divides, you get rounds.

    They tend to keep very well, and they're certainly easy to peel. I suspect certain varieties provide rounds more reliably than others, but you can do it with any of them.

    Hope this helps.

    Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?
