Garlic and strawberries. Yekkkk! Sorry Lisa. Couldn't resist it. :D

 

Well the garlic needs to get cold during the winter. I understand that stimulates it to develop numerous cloves. Also you should leave strawberries out until January because they need cold to stimulate the production of flower buds - i think that is called vernalisation and it applies to a number of plants.

 

Yep, plant garlic cloves outside in a vegetable bed in Oct. they should give you early crop next year in Jun .

 

splendid many thanks for your input folks
