PermalinkDoes anyone have tips for growing garlic in Perth, WA?
I planted several cloves back at the start of April and I'm waiting, waiting, waiting for the leaves to dry up and go brown but it's just not happening! I know we're in spring and having what feels like some nice winter weather at the moment. Could the crop be confused?

I'm on the other side of the world, but I don't recall my mom's garlic planting to have resulted in ready-to-use bulbs in spring, but rather in high-summer.
Yes, i don't harvest the bulk of my garlic until Jan or so. You can use them now, if you are desparate, without drying or storing, they will be milder and 'wet'.
