    I had some garlic cloves in my fridge which started to sprout so I planted them in pots and they are doing really well. Do garlic bulbs produce any flowers?

    My garlic tops have gone over but not turned yellow. And they were doing so well.planted them in pots in october 'the Iberian Wight ' 

    Have I lost them?

    I've got a good crop of garlic growing from cloves I planted last autumn. Do I let them flower before I harvest them? should I break the flowering tips off? Do I just wait until the tops just keel over and dry? Thanks, Rick.

    Cut the flowers off so they put more energy into the bulb
