Stalk of garlic?? So I looked into it and sure enough most garlic
around the
world is grown as green garlic.
Thanks for the research. The crux of the matter for me is that I
never have enough garlic for our yearly consumption. I spend more
time on garlic bed preparation than on making ready any other seed
bed. These two factors make me most loathe to do anything that would
diminish the bulb harvest. I have eaten the curly veggie-like tops of
some varieties as that does not diminish the harvest. But to eat a
stalk would be to kill the plant, would it not?
