Question about growing elephant garlic

Since the bulbs are SO big.... can the individual bulbils (?) be cut at all to grow more plants?

So far as I know, each clove gets planted.

ahhh i was think that was probably the case.
2nd dumb question: do i peel the clove? or leave the 'skin' on?

No question is dumb; I just don't have too many answers.

You need to pull the dry skin off the bulb to separate the cloves. Leave it on the clove. It is going to be a long time before you can harvest garlic, but you will also be able to eat the greens before they dry. It's been a long time since I grew garlic; you need to be patient. Check online for a video.

Do not peel the clove unless you're going to eat it.

ahhhh good info, Cathy! thank you!
