Garlic

I planted some garlic cloves a week after halloween, and the shoots are allready about 2 inches tall. With the impending winter I don't think they will keep though. Should I dig them up and try again in the spring or let it go and see what happens?

RE: Garlic

I planted in early November and have not checked nor will I check on it until spring. I am in central Ohio and we have bad winters (it has already started to be winter). I have a link for you to reveiw but I think one important thing to do, if you have not already done it, is to mulch it with leaves and or grass trimings. I mixed cow manure into the garden, then planted, and put about 3 inches of grass and leaves from the mower on top to protect it from winter. You don't think that you will have any problems but mulch it as soon as you can.

Here is the link: http://www.garlicfarm.ca/growing-garlic.htm
