Garlic

[zazen999]

Can I ask a (probably) stupid question.... How long do you need to dry them before they form their papery skins? A few weeks or months?
I pulled mine saturday, and they have been out in the sunshine on a sheltered table since.

They should come with papery skins already on the outside....just a day or two should dry them out enough.

Garlic harvest 2010

Took our overwintered garlic out today, its only just flopped over, so its rather late this year, but 140 + nice bulbs of garlic, and a few whoppers, methinks I'll have to enter the GYO Virtual Veg Show this year!

i pickled some of ours the other day as bought a jar from an agricultural show last year and hubby thought it was wonderful. cant wait to try it in a few weeks when it's had a chance to mature
