Planted in pots and raised beds at September 30th.
Garlic Germidour. Apparently according to gardening websites sowing season is around October so no problems there.
Weather is still a bit sunny during the day averaging about 20+°c and cold during the night around 10-15°c'ish. It is currently October 1st, 23:43pm as of writing and posting and it is currently at 13°C if anyone wants to be specific.
Live in UK, hardiness zone is 8b (if you want to be specific).

Did I plant too early and should've waited until mid October at least or am I okay? It's literally my first time planting these and hoping for the best lol.

Lastly, would I need to invest in a poly tunnel and or covers for my garlic plants during the cold weather or are they (Garlic) hardy crops?

Thanks in advance!

No, no, you're crystal clear tbh, I was just making sure I understood what you said so no worries there.

No problems with soil on our part so everything should be fine and dandy. Now I need to save some leaves and grass cuttings asap heh. I forgot to mention I bought the bulbs at a local garden centre so I know it's locally grown and I don't have to worry about it if it was grown in another country or if it's sprayed with pesticide of whatnot.
