Planting & Spacing

• When to Plant: Plant cloves in October for fall establishment, ensuring strong root systems before winter dormancy.

• Spacing: Plant cloves 4–6 inches deep and 6–8 inches apart in rows 36 inches apart for optimal bulb development. Use raised beds for improved drainage in heavier soils.

Care Tips

• Soil: Plant in well-drained, fertile soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0. Amend with compost or aged manure for best results.

• Watering: Provide 1–1.5 inches of water weekly via drip irrigation to maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging.

• Fertilizer: Apply a balanced organic fertilizer (e.g., 1-1-1 NPK) at planting and again in spring. Detailed fertilization recommendations will be included.

• Winter Protection: In Zones 3–5, apply 4–6 inches of straw mulch after the first frost to protect cloves. Remove mulch in spring to support growth.

• Pest Control: Elephant garlic is naturally pest-resistant, but monitor for thrips or onion maggots and use row covers if needed.
