Rob,

I have read much about a 24 hour pre-soak as well, have not done it personally. I'll possibly try it on a small portion of my bed this year.

I wanted to add, the people recommending the pre-soak also soak the cloves in rubbing alcohol for a minute or two prior to planting. Again, I've done none of the above, so I can't personally vouch for it.
