Tips for Harvesting Garlic Scapes: Mastering the Method Is Key
1. Timing of harvest. Garlic scapes must be harvested at the right time. Harvesting too early results in low scape yields because the scape has not fully emerged, and after harvest an "excess scape" section will still push out.

The most suitable harvest time is: when the scape has emerged and the "scape tip" has curved nearly a full circle. 2. Choose overcast days or after the sun slants westward on sunny days for harvesting. Harvesting garlic scapes easily leaves "wounds" on the stems and leaves of the garlic.
