hey men it” s Melissa from stellar family
farm and today I” m going to speak to you concerning something that you can expand that
just takes concerning 1/3 of an acre and can make you 6 numbers per year. what
is it? elephant garlic so as you can see
elephant garlic is garlic however a much bigger version it” s also connected to the
leek household and so it is milder and sweeter than garlic is.this things markets
for 8 bucks a pound on the reduced end I” ve seen them online for as long as $25.
an extra pound and each one of these bulbs has to do with 3/4 of a pound. so when I heard.
concerning elephant garlic the thing that truly attracted me in was its nickname. its.
nickname is the Home mortgage lifter and I” m like hey that seems awesome I think I.
want to try that but it was not incredibly very easy to locate elephant garlic seeds and.
I finished up just going online since I couldn” t discover it anywhere locally and.
I found a farmer off of Etsy I assume it was called Caribbean gardens and I.
actually in fact up ordering Getting bulbs like this for three hundred dollars.Thirty of.
these for 3 hundred bucks however if I can make 6 figures a year planting.
these that” s absolutely nothing. so this box right below has lots of elephant garlic. there” s 2 of these huge eco-friendly bags in right here this is likewise antique and GMO cost-free.
so this isn going to be great stuff every one of these bulbs has.
approximately 8 cloves in it so we” re mosting likely to plant we ‘ re going to tear.
all the completely dry stuff off and find the cloves and plant those.
and so then each little clove will certainly then develop into a large bulb such as this. this is.
not an obtain rich fast scheme; nevertheless it” s mosting likely to take a couple of cycles of.
multiplying these before I might in fact make the big profit on them.Let.
me show you the math on these so primarily I am starting with 30 light bulbs.
when those are pulled apart I will certainly have approximately 240 cloves this springtime as.
soon as the ground heats up and the danger of frost mores than I” m going
to. after that disintegrate these 30 light bulbs and develop about 240 cloves each of which.
I” m mosting likely to plant and these are grown regarding a foot apart I have allow those grow.
all spring and summer late summer season I” m going to gather as soon as they are
. ready and then I” m going to have 240 bulbs so then in the fall I” m. mosting likely to disintegrate those 240 bulbs which will certainly give me regarding 1920 cloves so.
‘after I gather those in the springtime I will certainly grow them once more so I ‘ ll be. Of those 15,360 light bulbs I ‘ m going to conserve at
that point factor up to here. I” m going to begin saving 1920 light bulbs with each harvest and after that I will be.
would conserve 1920 of those bulbs we would certainly market the rest which is thirteen thousand. 4 hundred forty bulbs at approximately six dollars each on the low end which provides. us an additional eighty thousand six hundred forty bucks which would certainly offer us a. revenue of one hundred sixty one thousand 2 hundred eighty bucks per year for. those two harvests and at this point we would simply be duplicating the cycle so the. ones that we saved in the springtime we would certainly replant we would save this amount. once again and it would certainly simply continue and this would be what you ‘ d gain each year
. As soon as you get to the area that you want to be at, if you followed this plan so. the amount that you intend to produce you ‘ ll be planting’fifteen thousand.
If I wanted it to be, 3 hundred sixty cloves per cycle and I figure that out. perfect square which maybe you’wouldn ‘ t desire it by doing this
but to be a perfect. square you ‘ d be planting 125 rows with 124 cloves.
per row so they are one foot apart which provides us a square foot of 15,625.
which is roughly one-third acre.spring is appropriate nearby here in.
Nebraska and so we ‘ ll be growing these mid-may so if you desire to comply with along.

‘after I gather those in the spring I will certainly grow them again so I ‘ ll be. Then late summer I will after that gather approximately 15,360 bulbs currently this is. Of those 15,360 bulbs I ‘ m going to conserve at
that point factor up to here. I” m going to start saving 1920 light bulbs with each harvest and then I will certainly be. That loss we would be growing what we.
