I understand that all have personal preferences as to when they harvest garlic, but what I see from your plants they are not ready yet. If you go by Engeland's advice and others they recommend waiting until at least the bottom four to six leaves have turned brown. I also would not go by the size of the bulb, since the size varies by variety of garlic, some are smaller and some are larger. When selecting garlic for seed I would not even look at a 2 inch bulb unless it was all that was available. Good Luck.
