Yes It's from seed, now 2 years old and will be ready to use this year. Elephant garlic.


if you cross that elephant garlic to something like Russian Red garlic , grow it from seed , and do it agin for two years , if I’m not mistaken you can name it and claim it as your own

sort of like my hero Luther Burbank

(gawd I’m so jealous of your Oklahoma weather)

i planted thsee last year not from seed but from cloves I got from the nursery. It’s not elephant but are already making huge bulbs. They should be ready later in the summer. I love the way they look growing. They are sharing a spot in my pepper bed
 
and the ticks , chiggers , copperheads , water moccasins , and the tornados
I think I will stay right where I am at. I spent my youth in Kansas......tip of he-ll....100°f and 100% humidity....and everything mentioned above. No thanks.
 
We have all that stuff here in my part of the world plus mosquitoes which I found out last year love me more than most folks. Looking for something to keep them away that’s not poison which I used all last summer because it was worth the trade off from getting ate up and itching for days. I don’t really mind the heat and humidity here in the summer. It’s not nearly as bad as it was n Georgia although people here dread it.
 
Now snakes, I don’t care for. Last year I was sitting on the corner of my square foot garden pulling some weeds and a snake slid thru my crotch and the back of my leg. By the time I realized that it could have only been a snake that I felt, I looked behind me and slithering across the yard was a 6 ft garden snake heading to my neighbors yard. To late to scream but made me think about it every time I sat down there again.
 
Rainy day here, just fed up all the plants. Transplants are put off till tomorrow I guess. Checked the tent to see if my ugly plant was ready but not yet. Will be glad to get this one out of the flower tent cal mag deficiency in 5th week of flower and low PH runoff but to late to fix. The buds are sticky, solid and heavy on this plant that was my manifold experiment but I must say my ugliest plant to date except for the nice buds which I guess it
s what matters at this point. Maybe it will be ready in a few days. Amber on sugar leaf already. I’m in week 11 on this crop with 3 plants stalling to finish.
