Where I can find bulk dried minced or granulated garlic to spread on lawn /beds?
I used to purchase from Costco and Sams but they can't seem to keep it stocked.

The feed store doesn't carry it.

Just curious what the garlic will do for lawns? I had not read about that before.

I've seen 2 oz. containers at the dollar stores like Dollar Tree and 99 Cent Store. And it seems like I've seen the larger size--problably large shaker size at Walmarts.

sandih, the garlic (dry or liquid spray) works as a fungicide. If you have been using cornmeal a lot, you might want to use the garlic instead. Then again, if you have a major fungus problem, you need to correct it first. Below is a link that might help.

My wife just went to Costco yesterday on 75 in Plano and she brought back 4 large containers for me. She said they had a lot left so you may give it a try if you're in the neighborhood.

I just got a big 7 lb jug of it at Sam's today. I had to look hard for it, though. It was at the very end of the aisle on the very bottom rack under the spices.
