| My garlic has come up through the mulch and is over a foot tall. What is the value in removing the mulch now? |

| No need to remove it. I mulch my garlic with hay when I plant in November and leave it in place all year, turning it under the following October in time for the next crop. TomNJ |

| The mulch will maintain soil moisture and cooler temps. Garlic doesn't like getting hot in the ground. Leave it on. |
