My onions had started to become prey to voracious slugs, so I pulled them the other day. They'll dry happily for a couple of weeks (more or less) in my rigged up rack on the porch. It smells very pungent out there right now--not a bad smell, but quite onion-y!
The garlic finally dried down the majority of the way, and now just needs storage in a cool, dark space. My pantry closet will be perfect, and the garlic should keep for a long time. I plan to use some of it for next year's crop, but it can wait in the pantry until October. That will give me plenty of time to decide which cloves look the best for seed stock. Right now, they all look pretty good!
