First, I took to the garlic apart to separate it into individual cloves. when you plant them, put make sure to plant with the pointy ends up.

Next, get your containers ready! I decided to use my husbands addiction to help us grow things ;-) Yup, coffee cups! If you would like to do this too, poke little holes in the bottom for drainage BEFORE you put the potting soil in. We used Organic potting soil which you can get at your local home improvement store. Do not pack the potting soil in too much. You want to make sure it is loose when planting garlic.

Plant the cloves pointy side up and fairly close together but not touching! Since we are planting these inside, we will be eating the sprouts but not actually growing a garlic bulb. In order to grow the actual bulb, they need to be planted outside and further apart.

Cover with more potting soil until they are covered by about a half inch to an inch of soil. Water until it starts to drip out the bottom holes.

Since we have cats who Love to eat plants, we decided these would be great as our own little greenhouses! They can still breath and get the much needed sunlight. Label them and put them in their perfect spot in your home!



                            All Done!! Ta-Da!!
