Posted - Oct 25 2015 : 09:38:35 AM Hey all. I am hoping there is a garlic expert out there. ![](icons/icon_smile.gif) I planted garlic in the spring, and I am wondering if I should leave it in the ground over winter or dig it up before the ground freezes? It seems to have not "sized up" as much as I would like, and I am thinking it will continue to grow in spring if I leave it in. Thoughts?

If you replant them in good, fertile soil they should size up and next August you'll have six times as much!!
