The Duganski garlic is further along than the German White in terms of leave browning/dying. Some looked quite ready to harvest based on the number of dead leaves, so, I went ahead and harvested those -- 5 look healthy but soooo small, and, 1 also small but seems to lack outer covering and saw a tiny black insect wandering in/out of the cloves.
The harvested ones are from the back (north) edge of the back wall, and one from the terra cotta planter.
Last fall when planting, I remarked that the Duganski cloves were smaller than the German White. Indeed, it looks like small cloves = small plant = small bulb. (I had noticed these plants were about half the width of the German White.)
Didn't harvest any German White yet because they don't look ready quite yet.
