Gary,

About when should those of us in this area be putting in the garlic?

Thanks.

Refresh my memory about where "this area" is...  I should be planting
within the next couple of weeks in upstate NY; the rule I heard at a talk
by somebody who actually knew something was 4-6 weeks before ground frost,
i.e. the ground freezing to an appreciable depth.  Here, that's usually
well into December.

Now if I can only trim and weigh all that cured garlic that's hanging in
the shed......

Ah...oops.  This area meaning your area - upstate NY, Capital district, and
in my case, southern Vermont.

In my case, southern VT.
