Plants are small,LST for sure slows growth.They just dont need that much water.Soon they'll grow and need more.

Those are pretty small plants,IIRTC thats a 3.5g pot? if so you dont need to feed every watering.

Oh wait!!!!! If you would like to make things even easier I would suggest a huge 27g SIP! Fixed it for ya,perfect watering completes the package.

I always did 40 peat 20 ewc/compost 40 perlte. Top dressing would include compost/ewc so i was careful not to over do the ewc/compost when mixing.

Cant remember exactly but yes 4 per sounds right,I remember doing 8 cups which is the whole container. Id mix about 20 gallons at a time.

I usually mixed the 444 with frass and the bloom.Then the 1 cup per 5 gallon of mixed soil. Rock dust,dom lime,ewc and worms,compost,peat,perlite. Some of my soil is over 4 yrs old now.Seams to work.

Tomatoes do very well,same recipe as weed, just I add a little more domo lime or epsom.Pending on your water.

From my reading it says Hardneck varieties need a cold period.I have no experience with this though. https://garlicseed.ca/blogs/growing-garlic/17725133-planting-garlic-in-spring

My understanding is without the cold period I wont get cloves,Ill get one round bulb ,if I just plant it without.

Well that’s the idea of freezing I guess. Stratification something? According to some videos it should work. Plan is to plant them in side so I have little plants by May. Nothing grows here until after may long anyway.

51*, Never got around to planting last fall so that's why the freezer trick.Broke a few bulbs up mixed with some dirt and in the freezer.Saw a video on it,will see what happens.

I picked up some Russian Red I think they're called.Read about freezing for 3 weeks then plant.Anyone tried? Its been 10 days so far ,will see what happens.

Dog had a muzzle on today,I waved and said thanks.He was hoping the dog would get better but admitted its going to take more time.Some are just grumpy. Didn't see the little dog,hope its OK.

Look at the SIP thread.You'll thank me later.
