   Can only suggest you get them into a grow bag - or split a compost bag and get them in !

   'tis passing the time to plant garlic and you need unfrozen soil to do it in  --   don't be fooled
   by clemant weather  --   get them in and sure they'll do OK  ---   if now !

Pot them for now if your soil is hard frozen, put them in the ground as soon as it softens enough.

garlic needs a cold snap so get in when you can
If it ain't broke don't fix it !!

If your allotment's like mine you won't be getting anything in at the moment without a pneumatic drill!
