Dry down takes about 3 weeks or so, clean up another few days. The finished bulbs go into heavy perforated plastic crates and into a cool basement area.
My garlic patch is about 40 minutes from home. We got a good inch of rain overnight. If we're lucky, one more good rain in a couple weeks will do it. From mid July to Aug. I'm preparing beds and cover cropping. This years area will get planted again in 3 years.
