Simply plant garlic cloves individually if they've started to sprout, even better!

Otherwise plant them with the pointy end up.

Make sure they are in a sunny location and soil isn't too damp.

You can plant multiple cloves four inches apart either in your yard or in a pot.

It will fair well even if planted among other flowers or vegetables.

Then just sit back and wait for your garlic to grow.

If it's potted, water it occasionally but don't drown it.

As your garlic grows, it will sprout leaves.

Once the leaves turn brown and die, it's time to harvest your garlic.
(Don't harvest any earlier or your cloves will be too small!)

Once you harvest your garlic, hang the bulbs in a cool, dry location to dry them and prevent rot.

Your garlic should dry in about a week, at which time you can simply brush off the dirt and start cooking with the cloves or plant some more!
