Some of my garlic has fallen over even though the leaves have not yet turned yellow. Should I dig it up anyway?

if you want to.

There are no firm rules about it.

They normally fall over after the leaves have turned yellow....maybe they want some water?

Harvest one and see if you are happy to harvest the rest.

I harvested a couple and although they are a decent size the cloves are not very marked.
