Growing Garlic

Has anyone successfully grown garlic indoors?

I would like to start an herb garden indoors. If anyone has experience and/or advice it is greatly appreciated.

Also, what common herbs can be started from seed instead of plant.

I know already that I would like garlic, chives and ummmm, I have no clue about the rest.

Thanks for your responses.

Hi,

I have never grown garlic but I have grown several other things. I have always done this outside and they don't always do well because bugs tend to eat them.

Currently I am growing my herbs in a sunny window inside. I have rosemary, oregano, basil and dill growing. You can grow anything that you want. It will all do well. Not sure on the garlic but chives and green onions grow well. I am finding that indoors they are doing better that outside.

Good luck! It's a lot of fun.

Check this out,

Wow gluten-free, that link is great. My Dining Room has a southern exposure and I have a glass couch table that would be perfect to put in front of the windows.

Do you get seeds at a store like Walmart or other stores or I guess even online.

I can't wait to get this going. I've been collecting pots already.

Thanks gluten-free. I appreciate you answering me. :D

That sounds like a perfect place to grow your herbs!

I have never used seeds. I buy mine at the nursery already growing. They are pretty inexpensive and easier.

If you want to grow from seed, Lowes and Home Depot have the seed packets. I don't see what that wouldn't work as well.

I don't think garlic works very well indoors for this reason:

"garlic requires a cold treatment of 40 degrees F for about 2 months to induce bulbing."

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.
