I have planted approximately 200 garlic cloves in pots and in the raised garden. There are 12 varieties of these gourmet garlics and each bulb will be approximately 1/4 lb. I still have lettuce (3 varieties) and onion (2 varieties) in 6" pots. I will plant some and some will go in a greenhouse. Two celery plants are in the raised garden. There are 3 lettuce plants of each of the 3 varieties planted within a plastic mesh cage. The cage not only keeps critters out but also gives me a frame that I can drape with a blanket when it gets really cold. We will have lettuce and celery well into winter. The garlic and onions will be pulled in May. I grow the gourmet garlic to sell (and of course to cook with) and grow everything else for our dinner table.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
