Hola

We noticed garlic growing some time ago and decided to leave it be, however, when do I know it is ready to pick as I planted some last year and it was a failure

Thanks

Simone

Hello again,

The leaves should die back, yellow and shrivel a bit to let you know the garlic's ready.  I tend to be a bit impatient though and check the odd bulb then replant if its not done.

Normally they're ready when it starts to heat up in June.

Even if they don't bulb up properly and split into cloves - which can happen if they're not that happy - you can still use just don't try to store them as they'll probably rot.

Hola Lec

Thanks for that I will look out for these signs over the coming months and pull when I notice drooping.

When is the best time to plant Garlic, do you know?

I expect I will be like you, I am a very impatient person LOL
