Just a short post to show a trick that has simplified my life today, and may simplify yours tomorrow if you’re getting your garlic planted this month.
I love garlic and want to plant more this year. Last year I spent ages separating the cloves before planting out. Earlier this year I searched and found a really easy way to accomplish this little task with a video similar to this one (I can’t find the one I first saw). I didn’t want to peel the cloves, just separate them. If you shake for a few seconds longer, you can peel all the cloves as well, if that’s what you want.



I’ll leave you with a couple of pretty shots taken out of my back window in September.


Until the next time…enjoy the bounty and beautiful colours of nature wherever you are.
I am going to give this a try tomorrow. I wonder if it would work to divide tulip and other flowering bulbs when they need to be divided.
Thanks, Jane.
You’re a hoot, Heather!
Thanks for the gariic tip, Jane. Your pics are amazing. D and I in the country also enjoy beautiful sunrises, moonrises and golden fields as the sun sets. We are so fortunate to have a spectacular east view.
Aren’t the colours now almost unbelievably beautiful? Driving into town yesterday, the trees were absolutely blazing!
