Growing Great Garlic: The Definitive Guide for Organic Gardeners and Small Farmers Review: A good read with a wealth of information that applies direct to garlic - What a great book! I appreciate how much detail the author goes into on his process, especially since he is a commercial grower. Normally those things are kept secret or glossed over and not very much help. He gives some really nice excerpts from his journal as well during the different seasons, highlighting problems he experiences or how things are coming along at various week intervals to help judge your own gardens progress. The thing I also found very helpful was information on modifying soil to be proper for garlic down to fertilizer types, and even amounts per acre. This makes it easy for me to calculate exactly what I need to amend my garden. One thing that made me hesitate purchasing this book were some of the negative reviews about the authors "know it all tone and hippy attitude." After reading it, I just realize that this man has a very advanced knowledge of permaculture and how the earth, crops, and animals work together as a system. His tone (in my opinion) also has a very "matter of act" manner about it, which maybe some attribute to being a know it all. As someone who's spent a lot of time in classrooms reading very dry textbooks, he just sounds like a teacher. Like any book, every author has their own views and ways to do things. That's what they've written about. This book is solid and has everything you need to know really on how to start growing garlic. I disagreed with a few things like bed preparation and spacing, but like anything in life you should take what someone says and see how to make it right for you. Sometimes that means changing a few things...That by no means makes the text useless. I have since come to reference this book quite heavily, and have highlighted sections on watering schedules and requirements, soil and compost amendment amounts, fertilizer preparation before planting, and a whole bunch more. This poor book is holding up well though. Review: Well-structured and very informative book. - Full of valuable information and the chapters cover a lot of information. The Glossary helps with new terms and the referenced articles in the bibliography point you to additional learning. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #706,011 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #613 in Organic & Sustainable Gardening & Horticulture #663 in Vegetable Cooking (Books) #668 in Vegetable Gardening | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (309) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.5 x 9 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 0963085018 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0963085016 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 213 pages | | Publication date | November 1, 1991 | | Publisher | Filaree | ## Images ![Growing Great Garlic: The Definitive Guide for Organic Gardeners and Small Farmers - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Esfe0cuxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good read with a wealth of information that applies direct to garlic *by J***N on January 19, 2017* What a great book!

The Glossary helps with new terms and the referenced articles in the bibliography point you to additional learning. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ what types of MULCH works best and how deep it should be *by S***9 on December 10, 2016* I wished that I had this book when I FIRST started in garlic. What varieties to grow, how to grow, how to improve the soil so I'd get larger and healthier garlic. That is why we grow garlic, right! We want to make our bodies healthier so putting healthy vegetables in us makes us healthier. How deep to put the clove, what diseases to check for and how to keep pests away. Important, what types of MULCH works best and how deep it should be. It's all in here a loads more. ## Frequently Bought Together - Growing Great Garlic: The Definitive Guide for Organic Gardeners and Small Farmers - Growing Gourmet Garlic for Profit (Profitable Plants) - Backyard Farming: Growing Garlic: The Complete Guide to Planting, Growing, and Harvesting Garlic. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/1703436-growing-great-garlic-the-definitive-guide-for-organic-gardeners-small](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/1703436-growing-great-garlic-the-definitive-guide-for-organic-gardeners-small) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
