Well--I consider this an experiment i will never repeat...
It is just not worth the results I got. Also--it is not worth the space all this
took up as I could have planted 2-3 tomatoes in it...

Judy--sorry to say all this---I know you are A GREAT go-getter for doing
things--but I use garlic seldom--as I cook seldom.

The heat, probably, did not help. When I went to dig up to see if anything
was there at all--all the foliage was dry and flat on the ground...

I got 3 Elephant garlic cloves (NOT so big!) and maybe 6 small garlic cloves.
Smaller than the ones you get in the multi-netting tube.

All my Shallots were the size of a small, slim garlic clove...

They are all still hanging outside under my patio roof.
I think I should bring them in and decide what to do....

Here they all are:
1--regular garrlics
2--Elephant garlic (3 heads)
3--This is all the shallots.....HUH? Not even worth trying to peel them...
