I have been trying to locate some Music cloves for planting for the Spring. MaryJane is sold out and so is every other place I have tried.

Any leads? I really wanted to plant garlic this fall, maybe I am out of luck. Hope not!

Thanks!

Actually seed garlic is a correct term! I just meant I don’t think you need to have garlic cloves that are labeled specifically seed garlic. As long as cloves are natural (not treated with pesticides or chemicals) I think you can plant them.

I don't think you necessarily have to use SEED GARLIC. The lady I bought my cloves from says she just saves a few of her bulbs each year to plant for the next season's harvest.

Thanks all! I guess seed garlic is the wrong term, I assume you would say cloves for growing instead. :)

If you are still looking, try Territorial Seed Company. I know they carry Music but not sure if they have any left.

I just bough 9 hard neck bulbs from the Amish farm. It is grown there and not treated. NOt sure what variety, but it is a long keeper as I have had it n the past.
Most places are sold out

I'm not sure if they have any left this year or not. Since you already got some maybe next year you can check out https://www.anniesheirloomseeds.com/
Great place to get all kinds of wonderful seeds!!!

(edited) Thanks Sara!

I ended up buying the garlic from Etsy. It was on the $ side but I really wanted that variety.

Here's the link in case anyone is interested:

Karen Maria, I also wanted seed garlic from MJF and when they weren't selling their garlic this year, but planting all for next year's crop, I bought garlic from Aldi and put 100 cloves in my raised beds. I hope you find what you are looking for, but if not try a few from the grocery store and see how you like it. Let us know what you end up doing.
