When is garlic ready?

[Todd]

Hi All,

About three months ago, I planted three cloves of garlic. Now I have the ~12 green spires. They look like the spire on a green (scallion) onion.

We have been having 30 def F nights. They don't seem to care.

Being that the bulbs are hiding from me, I have no clue what is going on. When is it time to dig them up?

Many thanks,

Wait until the leaves die. In the meantime, cut off any flower buds.

Thank you!
