Keep an eye on the garlic after it has been planted. As bulbs of garlic form in the ground, thin green leaves sprout through the dirt. These leaves are a direct indicator of how well the garlic is doing; when they begin to brown from the bottom up, the garlic will be ready to harvest shortly. Check the size of the garlic bulbs when the leaves are about 1/3 brown.
This would be done in the Spring of the year that you are going to plant it in the Fall. Garlic gets planted in the Fall and harvested the next Summer.
