Just havested my Inchelium Red Garlic. This was our first year for this one. I have only heard good things about it. We got this from one pound of seed.

You harvested already? This is a month early for your zone. Going to take you forever to dry that down to where they store well. Saw some great Inchelium Red plants yesterday but they are going to stay where they are until at least 10 July or later.

They were all falling over and it looked like they were ready. We had a very mild spring. It was in the 90's in March and we have had snow in March in years past. We are about a month early on everthing here. I have never had tomatos this early and my plants are loaded with them already. Some things about this global climate change warming thing are pretty cool I guess.
I have a drying room that stays about 60 degrees and 45% humidity. I am hoping to get them in there in a day or so for about a couple of weeks.
My main crop of Nootka Rose is nowhere near ready to be harvested. That is the one I am really looking forward to.

My garlic is out too. This is the French one I trialed this year Viola Franchese. Those 80 degree days, pushed that garlic fast. 57 garlics from 2 pounds. But it was Joseph's garlic that took the record. That's some pretty Inchelium. A really good harvest from one pound. This was not a great garlic year for us. In fact, it's about one of the worst I can remember. We just spent the morning pulling and cleaning garlic when a very jolly Latino guy with garlic braids 5 ft. long came by and offered to sell them to me for $10. His garlic was twice as big as mine. $10, sheesh. Just shoot me now. Attachments:
