I want to plant garlic. My gardening book says to buy a head of garlic, break it into cloves and plant each one separately in some soil.<br><br>
OK, that's great, but... what side do I put facing up??<br><br>
Also, does anyone know how much space the garlic will need to grow? Like, is one clove going to take a whole 8" diameter pot or can I put 4-5 cloves in a pot?<br><br>
Thanks!<br><br>
(PS I am not planning on growing full garlic heads but aiming for "green garlic", just as an exercise to see if I can actually keep it alive!)
