Using a marker, draw three medium aligning circles vertically on the bottles.
Next, peel all the garlic.
Using a cutter, slice the top part of the garlic, exposing the inside.
This is where the greens will sprout.
After this, fill up the plastic bottles with water.
Place each garlic on the cut-out part of the bottles, positioning it with the sliced part facing up.
After two days, the roots are noticeably longer.
On the third day, the leaves of the garlic or the garlic scapes started to sprout.
Six days passed, and the greens are now bigger and longer.
Prepare the planting pots with soil and rice husks and transfer the greens into them.
Place 6-8 greens into one pot.
(This depends on how big your pot is.
Do not overcrowd when you have a small pot.)
After re-planting, sprinkle some more rice husks into the pots.
