Limited Seed Garlic Guarantee (When Planted by November 15th)
Claim Deadline is 45 Days from Purchase or Delivery. (Claims placed after December 31st will be denied.)
What We Guarantee
Our only guarantee is that the seed garlic we sell will germinate, provided you follow the steps listed in our Garlic Planting & Growing Guide. This guarantee is only available to customers who purchase their seed garlic directly from us.
What We Cannot Guarantee
We cannot guarantee that your garlic will remain alive & healthy, or sizes up properly, as there are too many variables beyond our control to be able to do so (i.e. soil preparation, fertilization, weed and pest control, temperature control, irrigation, etc).
How to Request a Credit
If you encounter a significant lack of germination of your garlic (over 50%), please contact us within 45 days of delivery. If we determine that your garlic had a significant lack of germination, we will issue you a credit (not a refund) for the purchase price of your garlic (excluding shipping).* This 45-day time frame is meant to allow you up to 2 weeks to plant your garlic, and up to 4 weeks to check for signs of growth.
(*) We reserve the right to not issue credit for items already replaced. We also reserve the right to require photographic evidence of the lack of germination of your garlic.

I really like the flavor and heat of this garlic. You get 6 to 8 large cloves per head witch I like more than the smaller cloves.
I received 2lbs. of Metechi garlic bulbs in October 2021. They were of a relatively good size. I was a little disappointed to see two bulbs were rotten inside, but on the whole the bulbs looked healthy. They're all in the ground and we're awaiting their rise to freedom.
I received my order of 1 lb. of Metechi mid October 2018. All 1 lb. arrived in great condition. I planted on 10/28/18 and just fertilized for the first time this spring. They all were viable and are growing. I cannot wait to see how big they get.
1st time planting on this variety. Hoping for a good result.
Went to the store and bought a bag of Metechi garlic. When I got home and opened the bag, found out half them are rotten and mushy.
