The last of this years garlic scapes made excellent egg/scape breakfast burritos. Garlic is easy to grow and since scapes aren't usually in stores you'll have to grow some to get some.

@Lucky188

How long does it take for them to show up? I've got garlic growing but no sign of any scapes yet.

@Tarnagh its been about 3 months since spring thaw when mine popped up. When they grow them varies some by region, yours maybe a few weeks or month more from the pic. Only hard neck grow flower stem that are scapes.

@Lucky188

So if it isn't a hard neck variety of garlic it won't grow scapes?

Is there a way to tell if it's hard neck or not?

@Tarnagh Its the variety planted. When you break the cloves off a bulb to plant the hard neck leaves you with a dried stem in the center, soft neck don't have that. If you bought loose cloves to plant check the variety to see. Most grocery store garlic seems to be hardneck. (Some will plant that)
