I noticed it says garlic is not recommended for USA zone 9b. I am in 9b central California. I plant garlic every year mid-December and harvest it mid-June. With the winter rains I don’t worry about watering it until April or May. I have not had any trouble with slugs/snails eating it (like they do with everything else in my winter garden!) Super easy to grow, everyone in zone 9b should try it!

What is the name and variety of the garlic you are growing in zone 9B? I'm hoping to grow some garlic in zone 9B as well.
