@LokeMani You maybe already know this, but we plant our garlic in the fall, and it gets to -40C every winter! (Saskatchewan.) I'm amazed every year, but the garlic always sprouts. Truly hardy stuff! (Hardneck, not softneck)
Your garlic looks awesome! Mine is still sleeping.

@sundogplanets Yeah, I was more concerned about the fact that our garlic sprouted in late autumn/early winter before it got cold, and that maybe the soil would be too wet once it did suddenly freeze. Wow -40! Quite amazing that some plants can tolerate that. ❄️
