Hi
The Garlic Farm, (I bought my garlic from them), suggests sulphate of potash as in the message below.
"Hi Ric,
I would suggest a liberal application of sulphate of potash.
Unfortunately, Rust is not curable; all you can do at this stage is help to prevent the onset of the disease worsening.
Should Rust continue to develop, the knock-on effect of this disease is reduced bulb size.
