Garlic need watering?

[Ellie]

Hi,
I put my garlic in a month ago, but the weather has hovered in the upper
60's. Now it was 77 today! Should I water the garlic or wait for the rains which will come?

Last year I put it in the ground in December and it was already raining.

It will be in the high 70's again tomorrow and then down to 60's again, but I don't see rain in the ten day forcast.

Thanks,

Last year when I planted my garlic, I didn't do a thing to it after I put it in the ground. Fall around here is pretty dry, but a lot cooler than where you are. You might need to water since you're in a different zone.

Thanks, I am just amazed by this warm weather and have had to water my stuff when usually I don't.

I think I will giv it some water today.

It won't hurt to water it, but I'll get it would do well without it. That is, unless, you're running into a drought - that would be bad, I hope not!
