Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Quick Overview. The definition of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a condition in which a blood clot is embedded in one of the major deep veins of the lower legs, thighs, pelvis, or arm. A clot blocks blood circulation through these veins, which carry blood from the lower body back to the heart.
Purchase bulbs from mail order suppliers, garden center, or other local source. Break bulbs apart at planting time, keeping papery husks on the individual cloves. Plant with tips up, 2 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart in rows 15 to 24 inches apart. Plant elephant garlic varieties about 3 inches deep and 8 to 12 inches apart. Mulch heavily after planting to prevent soil heaving - particularly with less-hardy elephant garlic varieties.
Plant each seed 1 to 2 inches (2 1/2 to 5 cm) deep. Each seed should also be about 2 to 4 inches apart and covered lightly with loose soil. 1  If your soil is a little on the sandy side, plant the seeds a little deeper. If working with clay soil, spread 2 inches (5 cm) of manure or compost over the soil and work it into the top 1 foot (30.5 cm) of soil using a shovel or garden fork. 2  You could also mix sawdust or sand into the soil if it is especially heavy.
