Havesting garlic about 100 plants. It started to rain so will get the other half later.The harvest was hung in the shed to dry further, The bulbils were placed in a container to dry.I don’t use the scapes so allow them to produce bulbils. The garlic is good quality.

Seven bulbs of my stored garlic were processed for daily consumption. Maximum garlic benefits are achieved by ingesting garlic crushed and raw. To make ingesting tolerable I mix the daily plug of garlic with oat milk which effectively inhibits the burning sensation. Processing consists of removing the cloves from the bulb splitting with a table knife. Each clove is crushed with a conventional tortilla press and the skin is lifted off. The skinned garlic is then put through a Champion juice to crush. The pulp and juice is then mixed together, placed in a mold for freezing. One plug is ingested daily with my morning drink. Beneficial I don’t really know.
