I mulch ~3,000 row ft. with hand spread straw. Next year I will use a straw chopper on a 3 pt mount (would have used it this year, but it needs to have the engine fixed).

My garlic is all mulched with bagged leaves, but I wonder how others do this, especially those of you who grow a hundred feet or more of row. And do large-scale commercial garlic farmers mulch, or do they grow where the ground never freezes?
