Tom, thanks for the recommendation. Will try it next year, along with my regulars. Just a note - this year I had broccoli, cauliflower and lettuce transplants ready for when the garlic was lifted. The broccoli and lettuce did just fine. Also planted a few rows of radish seed, and they were absolutely amazing. Huge, crispy, not a bit pithy or wormy. Don't know whether to credit the "essence of garlic" remaining in the bed or the somewhat cooler weather and less sunlight, but will definitely repeat the experiment.
