When should garlic be lifted ?, I've got some growing
and looks good from the top, the leaves are starting to
turn brown, they where planted last November.
This evening I dug down around a couple of them and
they don't seem to be filling out very well.
Am I too early or have I done something wrong. ??


It's too early yet, are you sure your Garlic has not got rust? Garlic is
usually ready about the end of June beginning of July in the UK and the
leaves will mostly turn brown and dry (not orangey rust coloured).
That said you can use Garlic at this stage but for using now not for
storing.
