I agree with Phillipa, I grow garlic in containers using a mix of multi purpose compost and Sharp sand about 20% sand , keep them fairly well spaced and weed free , feed with a liqiud feriliser every 3 weeks or so once they are well established and growing well.
Good luck
Last year I put some garlic in the ground, others in pots (since ground space was rather limited). Both grew really well and I think with them drying away at the moment you really can't tell the difference in size. Perhaps had we had a dryer year it might be different!
