That looks excellent, Svalli! They should do really well this year.
We normally have a lot of snow down by this time, but we are having the strangest winter ever. Thaws at least twice a week, sometimes lasting 2 or 3 days, with rain and southerly winds. It's definitely a challenge for the garlic, so I'm glad I got lots of kelp and leaves. All the discussion about mulch was helpful and I hope it's enough. The raised beds seem to be draining well and the bulbil container too, no ice water on top.

But I kept back some of each kind of bulbil just in case, which I planted a couple of days ago in the greenhouse, as a backup plan.
