I'd rather not use any dangerous organic pesticides. I've seen little off-white bugs and worms on the bottoms of leaves and have killed them. I planted a clove of garlic just for fun. The plant only has two thin wilted green fronds. Is that how it's supposed to look? How long would it take to get garlic? How is it that the plant grows out of the clove but in the process creates a whole head? Thanks, Heather Booth
