Rule of thumb: Small cloves=small plants. Large cloves=large plants.
We always try for large but usually can't control the size, We always plan on pulling the small plants in the spring to sell as green garlic. Don't advise planting whole bulbs.

I read somewhere that the best garlic for my area would come from a local grower. So, I bought 20 pounds from a fellow grower at our market. The problem is all of the bulbs are very small, about the size of a nickel. The large ones were on top, hiding all the small ones underneath. My question is: are these small bulbs too .mall to plant? Can they be planted whole?, Or do I throw them away, and never buy anything from this particular vendor again?
In some of the planting instructions I received from bulbs ordered it says that the minimum bulb planting size should be 1 1/2 inches.
Thanks,
