Not sure why but dirt comes off Creole roots much easier then most garlic the dirt was blown off the roots after a day of drying, some of the outer wrappers were removed to speed drying which also removed dirt. We are using a leaf blower on the strings of garlic after drying them for just under two weeks to remove most of the dirt from the roots we lay the garlic on plywood sheets still tied together in long strings it removes a lot of dried dirt and speeds cleaning a lot. Always looking for tricks to save time. You need good intact wrappers for the leaf blower to work.
