I planted about 40 cloves of garlic in early spring into my garden but when they didn't look too healthy, i replaced them with plants (grown in the greenhouse). These looked great for a few weeks and were as tall as my onion plants (on same patch) but after some "heavy" Isle Of Wight winds the garlic were flat on the ground and soon died. weirdly the onions were fine and have gone on to produce a bumper crop. Anyone know why my garlic didnt survive if the onions did? What should i do to prevent this next yr??
