June 2, 2009 at 7:50 pmHey ya’ll~ I just harvested my garlic last week. It’s dry now and I was just wondering about weighing it. Do you weigh before you trim the dry shoots from the bulb or after…[or both]
We filled a bushel basket with our harvest 🙂

June 3, 2009 at 12:21 pmWell I just calculated the harvest for May. We weighed in at 870lb, but only 8lb was produce (from my tiny greenhouse). The other 862 was wheat grass and pasture for my goats and chickens. I cut it by hand and take it to them. Though, this is the first year I’ve taken the time to weigh every bucket.
