Default Garlic flowers

Well Tim,

We do bother breaking off the tops (that is before it actually blooms into a
flower). It really makes a bigger bulb.


I have now removed the tops from half of the plants. The other half I
shall allow to go to seed and see if I can raise my own strain of
Garlic bulb. This will also allow a trial of flower Vs no flower for
bulb size.

Thanks for the replies.

Cheers,
Compo.
