how did i end up with 120 garlic bulbs and zero regrets?

Pulling up garlic for the first time felt like digging for treasure. I started with just a handful of cloves last fall, tucked them into the soil, and hoped for the best. Fast forward to harvest day, and I was staring at over a hundred plump bulbs. Wild, right? Turns out, garlic is super chill to grow. I kept the soil loose, watered when the top inch got dry, and let the leaves turn yellow before pulling. The best part? No fancy tools needed—just a little patience and a lot of excitement. Now my kitchen smells amazing, and I get to share fresh garlic with friends. If you’ve got a patch of dirt, you’ve got to try this. It’s way easier than it looks. #gardening #garlicharvest #homegrown
