Over the ten years each gallon ends up costing less than $5.00 ea.
Carrots roughly 60 medium carrots 12 pounds (1 lb/gallon)
Organic garden-grown carrots to produce 60+ carrots annually, plant roughly 60–90 seeds to account for germination failures and thinning, allowing 2-3 inches of space per plant in loose, stone-free soil. Use a 1x3 foot area, sowing seeds 1/4 inch deep in rows 6-8 inches apart. Keep soil consistently moist for 2-3 weeks to ensure germination.
Celery 8 full bunches or 12 pounds (1 lb/gallon)
Grow your own celery. To harvest roughly 12 pounds or 8 full bunches of celery, plant 8 to 12 celery plants, allowing 10–12 inches of spacing between them in nutrient-rich, moist soil. Start seeds indoors 10–12 weeks before the last frost, as celery requires a long, cool growing season.
Onion 40 Medium Onions or 20 pounds (1.7 lb/gallon)
To harvest 40 medium onions (approx. 20 lbs), plant 45–50 onion sets or transplants 3–4 inches apart in rows spaced 12–15 inches apart. Plant in full sun in loose, well-draining soil rich in compost. Use fertilizer high in nitrogen (like ammonium sulfate) every 3 weeks to maximize bulb size.
Garlic 4 heads of Garlic Plant entire Garden at end of Season Give to Friends.
Plant enough garlic in Illinois by planting hardneck varieties (like 'Music' or 'German Extra Hardy') in October, allowing them to establish roots before the ground freezes. Place individual, unpeeled cloves 3–5 inches apart and 2–3 inches deep in full sun with well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Mulch heavily with straw to protect over winter.
