Garlic Varieties That Suit California Winters

Garlic Varieties That Suit California Winters

NOAA’s frost-free data for Los Angeles explains why softneck garlic outperforms hardneck varieties across most of coastal and Southern California.

Growing Garlic in Maine: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Growing Garlic in Maine: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

A practical rundown of fall planting dates, cold requirements, and variety choices for growing garlic successfully in Maine, from clove to cured bulb.

Garlic Varieties That Suit Arkansas Winters

Softneck garlic like Inchelium Red and Lorz Italian handles Arkansas’s mild winters more reliably than hardnecks, which need sustained cold to bulb well.

When to Plant Garlic in British Columbia: Counting Back From the First Frost

When to Plant Garlic in British Columbia: Counting Back From the First Frost

Garlic goes into British Columbia soil in mid-October, about three weeks before the region’s average first frost, so roots establish before winter.

Garlic in Arkansas goes into the ground in mid to late October, about three to four weeks before NOAA’s Little Rock frost normals show the first freeze.

Growing Garlic in Manitoba: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Growing Garlic in Manitoba: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Manitoba growers plant garlic in September using Winnipeg’s frost-normal data, choose cold-hardy hardneck varieties, and mulch heavily through winter.

Growing Garlic in Kentucky: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Growing Garlic in Kentucky: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Kentucky’s autumn cold is enough to divide garlic cloves properly. Plant in mid to late October and choose hardneck varieties for the coldest winters.

Growing Garlic in Kansas: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Growing Garlic in Kansas: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Kansas gets plenty of winter cold for garlic, but planting timing and variety choice still depend on Wichita’s fall frost dates and soil drainage.

Growing Garlic in Iowa: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Growing Garlic in Iowa: Planting Dates, Varieties and Winter Cold

Iowa’s long winters meet garlic’s cold requirement easily, so growers plant hardneck and softneck cloves in early fall, weeks before the ground freezes.

When to Plant Garlic in Arizona: Counting Back From the First Frost

When to Plant Garlic in Arizona: Counting Back From the First Frost
