It's Harvest Time

For those who planted garlic last fall it may be time to harvest!

Garlic is ready to harvest when the bottom two or three leaves have turned yellow.  Harvest the garlic by prying up the entire plant with a garden fork or shovel and gently removing most of the soil clinging to the bulb.  Cure the plants in full sun for about 2 weeks on a screen.  (Cover with a tarp at night and when it rains.)  When the leaves, stems and roots are thoroughly dry trim the roots, cut the stems to about 1 inch long and store in a mesh bag in a cool, dry place.
