Ermm, is there a good reason you're NOT getting CS? Garen's usually solo top, so there's plenty of farm to be had. Farm=gold=items=kills, so it's in your best interest to take last-hits when they present themselves. It is interesting to note that Garen can be effective with mediocre CS though, props for doing so well.
Also remember that winning a game of LoL depends on more than just you. If you're team is uncoordinated or simply unskilled, you won't win against competent opponents. When the game's going against you, farming up a lot of gold can help tip the balance. Just a thought.
You can also edit your original post to change CV to CS.

Thanks for the compliments! Funny thing is, I NEVER solo lane top. I choose a partner for bottom lane and tell them to be AGGRESSIVE! I refuse to lane with supports (excluding Soraka like a boss). With all my cooldowns/Summoner spells I can kill anyone at level 2, not taking into consideration flash/taunt etc.

He said he never solos top, so he SHOULD be against a support-DPS combo. One ward and the bush strategy is nullified. Despite his anti-slow on E and haste on Q, garen is still vulnerable to kiting. I usually can keep garens passive with Janna or Alistar just with harass and CC. It's difficult to force him out of the lane because of his passive, but he can definitely be harassed into submission.

Garen doesn't need CS if played right. I do this everygame without trying, I spin on creeps sure, but KILLS > ALL.
I'm currently 5-1 in ranked matches (Season 2) with an average of 60 minnion kills per game.
BUILD COMING SOON AD GAREN FOR THE WIN!
