Can you run me through how it works for you? You plant in fall (I'm thinking maybe late October in the DC area, not far from you), mulch. Do they sprout a little right away and then go dormant when it gets cold? Or do they not sprout at all until spring?

If they do sprout in fall, do you water them? Or not until spring?

I have really no playbook for what to expect so appreciate your experiences. What do you grow in PA? I imagine it would be similar for me. I ordered Chesnok Red and Georgian Fire, mostly because I liked the descriptions.

Dawgs, also would appreciate your advice too, as now I've blabbed so much to my mom about it that she wants to try growing garlic too. She's in Houston, zone 9, so her growing experience may be different than mine.
