Reviews"This book provides thorough explanations and answers to the "why" and "what if" questions you may have found yourself wondering. After reading this book, I am eager for my seed garlic to arrive in the mail and plan to incorporate lessons that I learned reading this book as I prepare the bed, plant, and mulch for winter. [...] I anticipate this will be a well-used reference book on my shelf with many notes about my own garlic growing experiences in the margins."--Alaska Master Gardener, "His conversational style makes this book accessible to the layperson while his wealth of experience makes it useful to even the experienced gardener. Despite having been written over 20 years ago, Growing Great Garlic remains the standard gardening guide for anyone interested in the organic cultivation of garlic. [...] Give Engeland a chance and he will show you that organic garlic can be an exciting crop of diverse shapes, colors and flavors."--Southern Exposure Seed Exchange

Very Good Book with a lot of garlic details from ground to table and in between
Overall the Growing Garlic Book is one of the best I have read to date. Be prepared to digest a lot of information. Don't feel overwhelmed as some information might make you feel, like what the heck. There is a lot of stuff that even an expert in gardening will pick some information from this book. Good drawings throughout the book on a variety of descriptions. Overall again a great book for you a first timer or as a long term grower over the years. We are never too old to learn new things.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good Introducton
This is a good introductory book to growing garlic, but one must actually grow it on his own soil to learn the subtle qualities of his specific location.Verified purchase: Yes
