Flowers on elephant garlic - remove or leave? I am guessing, like
onions; once flowering they'm boogered:-(

I think it's meant to, like hardneck garlic.

Cheers Bob. I'm hedging my bets just now - some left some removed.

Good plan; the improvement in size (or not) depends on a lot of local
conditions. Please post what the results were at harvest.

And say hello to Foggy, and Smiler.
