      I stored the garlic I grew in the garden in a bowl on the table ...   
   after properly curing it (strung and hung for a couple of months IIRC) .   
   It stayed good enough to use (or plant) for close to 2 years . BTW , I   
   planted cloves from some Walmart garlic , came out swell . Use the   
   biggest cloves for the biggest bulbs .
