Is it too early to plant autumn garlic?

I have Provence wight and Caulk wight. I’m in London. Should I wait a little or is now OK? Thanks for your advice.

It's not too early, mine are going in later today - as long as I don't get blown away

Mine went in over the last few days. Autumn garlic needs a good period of cold so the sooner the better. I've done it October for years with success.

Mine went in last week. Germidour and Casablanca.

If it stops raining tomorrow for mine to go in.
