Garlic
« on: June 11, 2007, 19:48:40 »
I lifted most of my garlic yesterday.  The variety is Purple Wight and the bulbs are a similar size to supermarket bulbs - all have cloved. 

Do I need to dry it now ?  I've not yet removed the roots or stem / leaves - should I chop these off ?  It's currently piled up in the brick greenhouse  ???

Don't cut the stems off, dry them and plait them-garlic farm site tells you how, it's quite easy & looks good.
