Garlic bulbils: An inexpensive way to increase seed stock

If you've wanted an inexpensive way to increase your seed stock without spending a lot, grow garlic bulbils.

We started these Korean Red garlic rounds and bulbs in the fall--and they all grew from a few bulbil capsules. We probably harvested 100 bulbs and rounds. We'll plant them all this October. By the third year, we'll probably have 400 to 600 garlic bulbs. And they all will have. originated from garlic bulbils that sell for about $3 per capsule. How cool is that?
