I figured out a long time ago that if you want a good garden, do what the wise older folks say. My wife starts back to school on 7/31 but I'll wait a few weeks after that to plant it. I can't believe that teachers have to start back to school in JULY. The kids go back the next week. That's just stupid, but has nothing to do with growing garlic.

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
