Harvesting Wet Garlic

Recommended Posts

From an e-mail to Garden A to Z:
After more poking about, I thought I would resend my question here. My beautiful garlic is standing in two inches of water. With more rain coming it will not dry out anytime soon. I am thinking it will rot. Can I possible salvage something by digging it up now which is three to four weeks early? It hasn’t begun to dry up. Thanks!

As garlic is a bulb your hunch is a good one. If it were me, I'd harvest the garlic now even though it is a bit early. If the bulbs sit wet they are in danger of rot. So I hope you see this answer and get a chance to salvage the crop!
