another garlic question.

The Bearded Farmer · Tue Nov 16, 2010 4:34 pm

I planted 3 rows of garlic in October (columbus weekend). The greens are out of the ground and about 4-6 inches high already. Is this OK or should I cut them back?? They are currently mulched with about 4 inches of leaves.

Sorry they are a little blury its about 50 degrees and raining!

Nope, you are fine. Just leave them alone how they are. You may even mulch them a little more if you want, but you shouldn't have to.

Thanks garden! Good to know.

1 small row of Elephant and 2 small rows of softneck., 30 plants in all. I'm sure I'll wish I had more.

Nice avatar!

What G5 said. Looks good. Plant some hardneck, my recommendation.
