Keeping garlic fresh throughout the winter can be a challenge, but with the right method, you can store it until the next harvest without it drying out, wilting, sprouting, or rotting. Here’s an effective way to create your own « time capsule » for garlic.
Why Does Garlic Go Bad?
Garlic can turn yellow or sprout due to various factors:
- Moisture: Excess moisture leads to rot.
- Temperature: Warmth encourages sprouting.
- Storage Method: Different materials affect garlic’s longevity.
The Best Method: Clay Pot Storage
What You Need
- Clay pot with a lid: Preferably unglazed, as it allows for better airflow.
- Phytosporin: For disinfecting the pot (optional).
- Garlic bulbs: Medium-sized bulbs work best.
