Title: garlic
Post by: noshed on March 08, 2006, 17:44

My predecessor planted a bed of garlic - the leaves are about 100mm high but the ones at one end look a bit yellow. Is this normal? The ones at the other end look greener. It's been very dry and cold over the last week but now it's warmer and teeming with rain, so maybe things will sort themselves out.

I think they will, try giving them some fertiliser - maybe lack of nitrogen causing the yellowing  leaves and a little fish blood and bone will do no harm.
