Thought I'd pop on and share this one. It's a bit more expensive, but is really strong so you don't need to use a lot. Tastes good as well.

Sorry Salad - share what??I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are – Milton Berle0

Probably - I thought the OP was recommending a specific brand and had meant to post a link. Daft old moo that I am, I'll just slink back into my corner and keep quiet.:silenced:

To be honest I can't say that I have noticed any difference between organic and non-organic garlic, this stuff on the other hand is fantastic!

Maybe I was just lucky with this lot. I got some in Tesco's cause I couldn't find the regular stuff and it's amazing. Well if you're easily amazed by food products anyway..0

I love organic garlic too! So much so that I planted 8 cloves of the stuff and hope soon to have my very own home grown bulbs! (The very first things I've ever grown and a very nice feeling it is too!)May all your dots fall silently to the ground.0

I have to agree that organic garlic does seem much stronger and has much more flavour! I got mine from Tesco too"An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will"

I just stuck them in some compost and water them when it gets a bit dry and I'm waiting to see what happens. I don't have any tips I'm afraid. I've no idea what it'll turn out like, except that the ones I planted outside are much bigger so far than the ones that are indoors.May all your dots fall silently to the ground.0
