Will planting garlic freeze to death in snowy days?

No, garlic can withstand a certain low temperature.

Garlic likes cold environmental conditions, and the suitable growth temperature is 12~25℃. If the temperature is too high, the bulbs stop growing and enter a dormant state. When the temperature is low, it grows slowly, and generally it will not die if it grows below zero degrees underground.

The lowest germination temperature of garlic cloves is 3~5℃, and the germination is rapidly accelerated above 65438 02℃, and the optimum germination temperature is about 20℃. The suitable temperature for seedling growth is 65438 04 ~ 20℃. When the seedling grows 4-5 leaves, it can tolerate the low temperature above-16℃, and the suitable temperature for garlic moss extension period is15-20℃, and the suitable temperature for bulb expansion period is 20-25℃. If the temperature is too high, the bulbs stop growing and enter a dormant state.
