Thanks, Kyla. Garlic is my "cash" crop, and though I can't grow much of it, having only some large pots and the raised garden in the backyard, what profit I do make goes right back into my summer-purchase of orchid plants. Perhaps we can deal another time.
Oh by the way, Kyla, when I prepare my garlic for shipping, it is all bagged in pint or quart size, brown paper bags. A label showing the variety and the weight is affixed to the bag. When storing the garlic I tell folks that a brown paper bag is a great way to keep it fresh for the longest period. Garlic needs to be stored in a dark, cool, and dry environment. The brown paper keeps the light away from the garlic yet allows some air. Plastic is a no-no. Thus, all my buyer needs to do is find a good space (pantry is what I use) and place their bag(s) there. I guess you could say that I substitute efficiency for pizazz.
