In the weekly Hiskashrus magazine it brings in the name of R’ Yaakov Landau that Lubavitch never had a Minhag not to eat garlic. This has appeared there for at least ten straight years.
There is a definite minhag Lubavitch not to eat radishes on Pesach, for an unknown reason, but there is no minhag one way or the other about garlic.

Can u use it or not?
so do we or do we not have to peel before pesach?

perhaps only if a liquid chomets gets mixed in liquid without being cooked does the alter rebbe say its “chozer v’naior” (becomes forbidden on pesach) but if its cooked (b4 pesach) it becomes nullified
kindly take note that we all drink wine or grape juice on pesach, and in the making thereof, the grapes or raisins are definitely NOT peeld !!!
based on this video. What is the real difference between a crumb of chometz and a liquid consisting of Chometz? I’m not really sure
What about on pesach?
