First I picked off sprits from my garlic (yummy!). Now all of the
tops have slowly died. Is it time to harvest?

when the leaves have started to die back,
but before they all have. if you wait too
long the tunic on the bottom starts to
degrade. it's not a big issue if you are
just keeping it for yourself, but it is
nicer to have a good tunic for storage.


Does garlic require much water?

i keep it regularly watered up until
the last few weeks.
