Lesson

Previously planted garlic has yet to sprout. Perhaps it is a good idea to plant garlic in water first.

Fertilize with organic fertilizer and larvie frass.

Doing alright, though I wish the greens were more lush.

Problem Watering

Some leaves are dying after I bottom water it a few days ago. Perhaps the soil is too wet.

Dying

The garlic chives didn't grow well, probably due to lack of sunlight, or lack of nutrients.
