BDN features UMaine Extension video on growing garlic in Maine
The Bangor Daily News featured a University of Maine Cooperative Extension video in the post, “Fall is the best time to plant garlic. This video shows how to do it.” The video features Dave Fuller, an agriculture and non-timber forest professional at the UMaine Cooperative Extension, who offers tips on planting and growing garlic. Fuller recommends using hardneck garlic, which grows better in colder climates. He suggests planting cloves around six inches apart, under two inches of soil topped with two inches of straw mulch, according to the article. The garlic should be ready to harvest by spring, the article states.
