Harvesting and Curing Garlic
Last November, right before the first frost, in the middle of the month, I planted garlic in one of my garden beds. It was very easy to do, you take a garlic clove and stick it in the soil, root side down about 6 inches from the next one. And that all there is to it.
The garlic sprouted only a few days after I planted it, but then overwintered in the ground, uncovered, all Winter long. It didn’t grow any further but it didn’t die either. Once the weather started to warm a bit in the beginning of Spring, the garlic started growing again.
In the past week, the top of the plants started to yellow and die. This meant, it was harvest time.
