First real harvest
« on: July 07, 2009, 08:53 »
We have been picking berries and bits and bobs for a while but over the weekend we dug up all of our onions and garlic, im really pleased as ive never had much success with garlic before but after working really hard to feed the ground we have had success.  My onions and garlic are all laid out on a rack to dry a bit busy but hopefully if i move them occasionally they'll dry out nicely heres a picture: hopefully:

Can't wait to pull my garlic, mine are not quite ready the stalks are still mostly green and upright.  I think my onions are nearly ready to pull up, I've used the odd one here and there as couldn't wait any longer and they were really good   :)

I was going to leave my garlic for a bit longer but i pulled one up to use and noticed it looked "rusty" so i thought rather than risk it i have them out, im glad i did some had just a slight colouring of rust.
