Think I've got white rot on mine  hardly any root system and white fluffy rot underneath

Are you intending to leave them be or try to make the best of the crop by lifting and drying? I ask as I've had the same problem for the last two years with autumn planted sets. Elephant garlic came in for a hammering last year too because it was so wet.

I've lifted the lot and hanging them up to dry in the greenhouse.
