*Dates are for setting out transplants 1 Dates are for Central Maryland. Advance or delay planting dates accordingly for other areas of the state. 2 A good rule of thumb is to plant seeds to a depth 2x their diameter. Seeds can be planted deeper in sandy soils and shallower in heavy clay soils. 3 Distance between rows can be reduced if rows are planted on a raised bed. 4 Garlic planted in the fall will out produce garlic planted in the spring.
