Garlic Chives grow grass-like leaves with a mild garlic taste. To best retain flavor, dry harvested leaves quickly. Chopped leaves can also be frozen for later use.
Garlic Chives are an ideal herb for those who love the taste of garlic, but wish to avoid its pungent aroma. Unlike regular garlic, they do not leave a strong smell on the fingers or in the mouth.
INSTRUCTIONS
Garlic Chives seed can be sown directly into the garden when the soil is warm and all danger of frost is passed. After planting, water the seeds with a gentle mist or shower. A hard spray can wash soil away, dislodge seeds and clump them together. It is critical to keep the soil consistently moist , but not soggy during germination. Do not let the soil dry out, as young plants have underdeveloped roots and can quickly dehydrate, particularly in windy conditions. When your seedlings reach a height of a few centimeters and have developed 2 or 3 pairs of leaves, it is important to thin them out, according to the plant spacing indicated below to provide good air circulation and room to grow.
For an earlier crop, seeds can be started indoors6 weeks before the last frost in your area.
