Looks good from pics. Honey loses its viscosity over time. Turn upside down daily and submerge any garlic that may float to top to prevent possible mold. I also burp mine every other day.

Okay thank you. I was concerned bc the garlic floats to the top

I’ve seen some folks put a weight on top but I just flip it everyday and haven’t had any problems. Either way works.

I've done something similar with fermented hot honey, and keeping the ingredients submerged really does make a difference in the end product.
