Well , I got some now , how do I prep it for storage and store it ?
Cool dry place , I figure , but I'm not sure how to dry it for
storage .

How did you know when they were ready for harvesting?
This spring, I had some sprouting garlic cloves that I popped into a
planter, and now the greens are about a foot long, and getting thick
at the base. Do I just occasionally cut some greens off, but wait
til fall, or what?

Garlic is usually planted in the fall - this was planted last October .
When the leaves turned brown halfway up I dug up a couple , they had nice
bulbs . Then I read that I should wait until the foilage is all brown , but
I think any time after half is brown will work . I'll wait a little longer
to harvest it all and hope a hundred plants will be enough for seed and our
table .
