Thanks zipcode! I am glad to hear we're not the only ones and some research has been done about it. I suppose that the wet weather during the vegetative growth may have also released too much N from granular ferts (bone meal) at the wrong time.
There are three different porcelain varieties in this bed and the three stunted plants I pulled were one of each. I haven't as yet ever seen this on garlic other than porcelain, iirc. My other varieties are in a different bed this year and don't appear affected (no stunted plants) but we will see come harvest time.
