I have never grown music garlic, but since it is recommended by Sandy, I would imagine it is a hardneck. If so, it would be well-suited for growing in the cold areas, zones 3-6.
Linda, I haven't forgotten you or your question. I just haven't taken the time to look up what hardneck varieties I planted. Sandy has a good point though. Because I am in the deep south, what I grow does not necessarily grow well in IN. I have never had a variety NOT grow well (though a rainy spring sure seems to reduce the size of bulbs). I have a feeling that's more because of where I live than how I grow it.
We have rain in the forecast every single day this week. My raised garden drains well, it should, it is 2'+ deep, so this shouldn't be a problem for my garlic since it will also stay warm. Ideally (ARE YOU LISTENING MOTHER NATURE?), I would like to have pretty dry weather those last six or so weeks before harvest, so this rain will be right on the edge of that time-frame.
