I also have more detailed question, re
what part sold vs price. I harvest at first bend so tender, and pull the
scape out or snap it off, with stem attached. I have a friend who sells
to restaurants who says they only want the tips. So, I assume only tips
sells for a lot more than tips with tender stems? Beth Spaugh http://rhomestead.com

On Behalf Of Thomas P Hurtgen Richard and others, ... am a first-time garlic grower. When
and how are scapes harvested? I've read to harvest scapes while they are
still curled (vs straight, I guess). How much of the stem below the bulb
is harvested? Thanks for any suggestions that you can offer. Tom

at winter market for a premium) so scapes cover the costs of growing the seed
crop, which is something to consider. With the exception of elephant we
grow nothing but stiff neck garlic specifically because of scapes and look at
them as part of the cash crop. Richard Stewart Carriage House Farm An (513) 967-1106 _______________________________________________ |
