Rust makes orange spots, which proliferate to turn leaves yellow before the garlic can finish making a large bulb, so the harvest is much smaller. Whereas last year, from the same seed garlic, I had very little rust and I don't understand why. Some beds this year I treated with wood ash and that made no difference. The allium leaf miner is a new pest and they are starting to cause more damage, so I'm thinking to grow most of my garlic under cover(s) next year. Oddly, the bed you see at the end has suffered less rust and also has a nice interplant of beetroot, which we transplanted a month ago as quite small seedlings. See my book Grow Together for more ideas on that. Filmed by Nicola Smith, 9th June 2026, at Homeacres no dig garden.
