Tips For Growing Hardneck Garlic: The Manual Guide For Growing, Caring, Propagating And Pruning

By: Coman, Pen

Allium sativum, more often known as garlic, is a plant that produces edible bulbs and is closely related to onion (Allium cepa). Hardneck garlic, also known as Allium sativum var. ophioscorodon, is the type of garlic that is commonly cultivated in regions with lower average temperatures. It gets its common name from the fact that the stalk or neck of the plant climbs upward from the bulb and hardens as it matures. In contrast to the softneck cultivars, hardnecks often produce a smaller number of bigger cloves. Since garlic has a very slow growth rate, it is often planted in the autumn months. Because it contains several compounds that are harmful not just to humans but also to animals1, you need to be careful about where you plant it.
