FAQ Discover the frequently asked question
Receive garlic bulbs or bulblets ready to plant?
You can choose to receive your certified seed garlic in bulb or clove form. EARL du Pont Vert is able to offer you a garlic de-bushing service. You'll receive garlic cloves ready for planting.
However, garlic bulblets can only be stored for a very short time between destoning and planting (around one week). This means that when you receive certified garlic seed, you must be able to sow it immediately, i.e. the soil must be prepared and the weather conditions suitable for planting. Please contact us to discuss the possibility of this service.
How to plant garlic seeds?
Planting is done manually or mechanically, in a ploughed, prepared and drained plot. Planting conditions are crucial to garlic emergence, uniformity and establishment. They determine part of the crop's success. Autumn garlic plants are sown between October and November. For pink spring garlic, late December to mid-February is ideal.
For green garlic, perforated plastic allows for greater earliness and size. In this case, in regions of southern France with little exposure to winter cold, the planting date can be brought forward to late September or even earlier, especially for early Primor and Germidour violet garlic. Care must be taken with row spacing, depending on the harvesting equipment used.
Depending on weather conditions at planting and soil structure, irrigation may be useful to close the furrows properly and keep the garlic cool if sown in dry conditions.
