Default Green Garlic

Having pulled and dried my garlic, I notice that it has grown so well
that some of the bulbs have split as the cloves have expanded. The
cloves have turned green on the outside, instead of the purlish colour
they should be.

Are they OK to eat and will they store? (I'm pretty sure they are, but
SWMBO wants reassurance!)

Thanks



I have the same and also many others are just like an onion, as in one
large bulb. I have only grown garlic for 2 years, this is year 2 and last
year every one was perfect and have used them to plant this year.

I can't offer any advice but at least you are not alone.
