How to Grow Garlic in Containers (Step by Step Guide With Video)

In this project  I'll show you how to grow garlic cloves in container. So once you've got your leftover garlic, I'm going to show you a really quick way and make sure that it's germinated correctly. So you just need a cup, some rainwater, and some garlic.

Bear in mind only use this technique to re-hydrate really old garlic. You can plant fresher garlic straight into your container but I find this technique a lot more fun and this helped.

All we need is a smallest amount of rainwater in the bottom this is just to help the roots start that will do so you put the garlic in now your roots are going to come out of this part and your green sections going to come out of there so you just need to put them in root side down it'll be easy once they're all in and you just separate separate your garlic you can leave them in the shell now as you can see I'm using everything I have you'll find the bigger the clove the more successful you'll be at germinating and growing a larger healthier garlic so now you got them all in the cup all standing up properly you just leave them there for a few days maybe a week one week later and your garlic clove should look something like this they sprout really really quickly so before they start rotting it's now time to put them into soil so I'm just gonna use an old pot I found in a garden now make sure there's some good drainage holes as usual I'm going to use 50% native soil and 50% homemade compost if you want to know how to make homemade compost check out the video link at the end of this video I'm just gonna use a little bit of this mesh that I found just to sift the the soil in properly to make sure there's no big chunks and just fill that up until it's about a few inches away from the top so now you've got all your soil prepared in the pot just get the in the handle of the truck and what you want to do is plant them about an inch to two inches deep and about three to four inches apart so I'm just going to use this as a nice guide I swear fine just place them in enough I'll pack them down too tight and then just water to me and you'll probably only need to water these less than once a week but keep an eye on the moisture levels and they should be fine in about 4 months time if you don't see a follow-up video of me harvesting these garlic's please subscribe to get all my up-to-date information this have links to some other videos I've uploaded this month thanks for watching I hope to see you next time
