Mmmmmmm, look at all the garlic wonderfulness! We're off on our summer hols next Saturday so the garden received a lot of TLC this weekend. We tried to harvest as much as we could before we leave everything to fend for itself.
I would say the garlic has been pretty successful this year. To be honest they just got on with it, no fuss at all. We just duly watered and fed them and they've been no trouble at all. They could be a little bigger but for our first attempt we're pretty chuffed.
They've probably been ready to pull for a couple of weeks or so. They're ready when the leaves start to go yellow and dry, the same deal as the shallots and onions. We're going to let them dry out for a couple of weeks and they should be ready by the time we're back from our travels.
