Guess while it is growing will get the pest deterrent benefits to keep some Japanese Beetles and Aphids away. Well so far from above the surface everything seems to be doing well.

I tried one from bulb from my grocery store (didn't produce a bulb), one from the nursery (growing nicely), and one from the farmers market (big fat stalks). I checked on mine recently and looks like I still ahve a few more months to go. I can't wait to try homegrown garlic. I just wish they wouldn’t take so long to grow!

These are two different kinds.If you get garlic that comes from far away, it may have to be regrown in your garden for a few years before the bulbs get big.Otherwise, yes, that's all there is to growing garlic and what you buy in the store or at the market is fine Like you said, even better if it's organic. You may as well taste some before you plant it and make sure it's good, because you will end up with a lot of it eventually.
