Description: Primor Garlic bulbs have a mild flavour. They are also an early variety. Primor is a variety of softneck garlic. It is known for its mild flavour and is often used in a wide range of culinary applications. Primor garlic is popular for its ability to store well, making it a good choice for those who want a longer shelf life for their garlic bulbs. 

It is not a hardneck garlic variety, so it does not produce the central woody stem typical of hardneck garlic. Instead, Primor garlic forms multiple layers of cloves within the bulb and has a soft, flexible stalk.

How To Grown Primor Garlic Bulbs In Ireland

1. Planting Time: For best results, plant your Primor garlic bulbs in the autumn, around October to November.
2. Soil Preparation: Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Enrich the soil with organic matter or compost before planting if the soil is poor.
3. Clove Seperation: Each clove will grow into a new garlic bulb. Seperate all the cloves of the bulb.
4. Planting Depth and Spacing: Plant each clove 15cm apart in rows 30cm apart, with the pointed end facing up. Cover with soil and water well.
5. Care: Maintain consistent moisture in the soil, but avoid waterlogging. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
6. Harvesting: Your Primor garlic will be ready for harvest by mid-summer, typically June or July. Harvest when the lower leaves turn brown while the upper leaves remain green.
7. Curing: Cure your harvested garlic bulbs by hanging them in a well-ventilated, dry area for 2-3 weeks to enhance their storage life.
