So much garlic is grown in central California, zone 9, I'm so surprised it isn't recommended here! I'm going to give it a shot and see how it goes

I thought the same thing. I have grown Garlic successfully before in Fresno a few years ago in the fall. Some were small and some were average sized. I made sure they were planted with companion plants, etc. I bought bulbs from a reputable dealer, did all the things and ate the scrapes. I am going to try planting again this season. I'll start in the fall, specifically from late September to mid-October, for a harvest in late spring or early summer.
