Sorting garlic

Now is the time to be planting this stuff. Its easy to grow, and so far I haven't seen it affected by insects or disease. You just have to remember to plant it in the fall. Last year I neatly planted in multiple rows all lined up with the varieties labeled with a survey flag. This year I simply planted whatever we hadn't eat up to this point, was big enough for me to fool with and then I scatter plotted - i.e. tossed them into the air over my prepared bed, thinned them out a bit and planted them were they lay.
