There are two obstacles in preserving garlic.Moisture and light.While it is critical to protect garlic from moisture and light,it is equally essential that they get air.Garlic bulbs cannot be stored in the refrigerator as the moisture will damage the cloves.They should also not be kept in plastic bags since plastic allows light and condensation.Here are a few easy tips to store garlic for a long time.
Instructions

Store garlic in an open brown paper bag.It will block light and also allow air to circulate within.You could also use a small cardboard box with a lid.Poke a few holes all over the box to allow air circulation.
