more garlic

Never grown garlic in a planter, how long is the grow time, usually it's seven - eight months in the ground...

this is my first time aswell, i went a bit mad with it and set 3 planters! I love the stuff tho so it'll get used.
I'm not sure when i planted come to think of it? I really should keep a diary of these things, how things are doing etc so i can learn from any mistakes!

I use garlic a lot...good for the heart too...the tops die off when the bulbs are ready, it's a long wait... :))
