Harvested my garlic today. How long do I let it sit out to dry?
Thanks,

Keep it in the shade. These 108-110 deg days are a bit warm. While the
relative humidity continues to be under 10 percent and the 10-30 knot
breezes from the southwest continue, two weeks is long enough. But make
sure it passes the no sniff test. The outer skin should be dry enough
so you can't smell the garlic unless you break the skin.
