I just read this great blog about growing garlic:
- A garlic bulb in the ground has a better chance to grow than one in a bag or in the garbage (just plant it)
- As long as you can dig into the soil (not frozen solid) you can plant fall garlic
- Garlic takes about 5-6 months to reach maturity
- Garlic ready to harvest when leaves start turning brown (and not just because there is a drought)
- Harvest BEFORE 2/3 of leaves are brown so that they store well
