Asian Tempest - a website said early in and early out. Do I need to set in a special area and plant now while still warmer, instead of with the other garlic in about 2 weeks? 4 bulbs purchased
Polish
Incelium Red
Waiting on arrival from Pinetree, grown there locally in Maine, so hopefully will do well here
Amish Rocambole
Persian Star
Pehoski Purple (returning from saved seed)
about 30 saved misc bulbs of all categories exclusive of porcelains below
10 bulbs each - some new, some from last year : will keep separate to compare adapiton:
German Extra Hardy
Music
Romanian Red
Garden is 30 X 30 sloped e-w , the upper(e) being best for drainage
Thanks for any help in arranging the rows!

I don't know which variety or classification this is, but I have been getting a high number of double bulbs, each having it's own scape but butted up against each other. I was careful not to plant double cloves. Any thoughts as to cause?
In the photo, the smaller two were partially cojoined, and the smaller of the pair (nicked) had the scape left on. Normal bulbs for comparison.
