I noticed that some of the hardneck garlic in my pantry was infested with onion flies, I could see the maggots inside the base of the bulbs. So I took all the heads apart to check and tossed the affected ones. Now I have a big wooden bowl with mostly single cloves and some quarter and half-heads. I hope they will not rot prematurely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am not sure where the onion flies came from. Probably from the plot. So I picked the farthest spot away from this year\u2019s garlic to plant next year\u2019s crop. I mulched the garlic with salt marsh hay. This will be the only hay I use over the winter into next season as I am still trying to get rid of the pill bug infestation. I had to do much more weeding this year but it did seem to have worked to reduce the pest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?resize=695%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3187\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C737&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?resize=300%2C216&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?resize=768%2C553&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1106&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?resize=1100%2C792&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?w=2012&amp;ssl=1 2012w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/garlic-11_07_2021-1.jpg?w=1390&amp;ssl=1 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><figcaption><em>Plot today.
