I planted my garlic in october and now I am seeing considerable top
growth, due to warmer than expected temperatures. is this going to cause
problems? the variety is a hardneck, russian red. thanks

Good sign it should do well, come spring make sure to top dress with
some sifted compost, keep the weeds down and provide even moisture.
Don't forget to stir fry some of the scapes before they get too tough.
