“Governor Kemp sent out info that a student at Roswell High School, yes Roswell, GA has been identified as having Coronavirus. School will take appropriate action. Guess those kids are home for an early spring break.”

That was a false alarm, the student is a homeschooler.

Yes, the garlic is started from cloves, but you ought to order them from a plant catalog.

I understand that the garlic in the stores is often treated with anti-Sprouting chemicals.

Plus, when you buy from a catalog, you can buy what fits your situation as far as weather.

So, In Sept/Oct here in the northeast, I dig the trench and put one clove every 8 inches. I then cover them with the dirt and lay down landscape fabric between the rows and cover it with straw to help keep the weeds down. It works wonderfully well as weeding garlic is difficult once the plants get past a couple feet tall.

They start growing in the fall and then get buried in the snow and when the snow melts in the spring, they just keep growing.

Around August, the leaves start to die back and when about half the leaves are brown and dead, you very gently, loosen the soil around them and lift the bulbs from the ground.

They then need to be stored in a well ventilated area out of the sun to cure.

Then I cut the tops off and brush the dried up dirt off and pick out the biggest and best bulbs to use for next the years crop. Those get planted again in Sept/Oct.

I have not yet dived into my dehydrated garlic supply as I am just using up what I got from last year.

I expect I’ll either throw them in the food as is, or if I want granulated garlic, I’ll use a mortar and pestle to grind it up.

Here is someone asked to stay at home who went to a college event despite that’s-and then was diagnosed with it. MBA student, so maybe not that surprising.

Charles Payne’s wife with heart transplant cannot find the N95 masks she needs because people are fanning panic

Stop it with the virtue signally. Send her a mask if you care. They are out there. You are acting like a total drama queen.

Thanks for the garlic planting info.

I’ll have to check out the seeds, and how best to plant, for my area.

I bought a HUGE bag of peeled bulbs....I’m wondering if I should dehydrate them. Hmmm.

That wasn’t planet wide though.

And not even nationwide.

Our public works people in cities/towns/etc have done a good job keeping human waste sanitarily disposed of. Which has prevented many many issues.

Thank you for these threads.

My family and I appreciate the volume of information that we learn in them. Through threads like these, we’re able to gather information to understand the medical data and risk data as they come out. This is valuable in more ways than you know. Many links, contributed by many different posters have provided us with info we wouldn’t have found on our own.

In these threads, we’ve seen the nasty comments directed at you yet we encourage you to persevere so that we can educate ourselves, family and friends.

Respectfully,
SW

At the hospital where I work people are stealing whole boxes from every nurse’s station and waiting room. ER had 5 boxes taken in an hour today. It’s so busy no one is watching the boxes and boom- they’re gone.

There’s an uneasy feeling around. We give masks away- but people stealing them like this every day..I hate to imagine what it could turn into.

The veneer is thin..

We shall see. POTUS made a few mistakes over the last week or so. MSM and political foes will exploit that. Then with San Fran Nan holding back votes for funding to exploit POTUS again. The sheeple will eat it up.
It’s paramount that everyone gets out to vote for POTUS in November. The democrats are seething and I think the number of voters this November will dwarf 2016. I fear we are in trouble.

You don’t start with seeds. You buy the garlic bulbs and break the cloves off and plant those.

What I did to dehydrate them was to get a garlic mandolin (at Bed, Bath, and Beyond) and slice them VERY thin.

Then I laid them on parchment paper on cookie sheets and put them in the oven on standard proofing for a couple days. Too high a temperature will destroy the allicin and other beneficial chemicals in the garlic.

And a word of advice.

OPEN THE WINDOWS and close off the kitchen for the first several hours or you’ll burn your eyes out.

Trust me on that.

Good article that explains why many people are not willing to believe what is going on all over the world.
