I am trying to change Drupal 6 garland theme's sidebar color and width.
A:
This does not seem like a drupal question. Rather than css problem? In any case, if you type in the keywords of your question to google search, then search yields:
I suggest you get firebug firefox extension, that also shows which css file is used to set that sidebar properties. Then look it up in your file system and do the necessary changes - you can try those changes in browser with frebug, before hitting save button.

In addition to changing the CSS code, you may need to edit the page templates in the garland theme file.
My suggestion is that you start with this page: http://drupal.org/node/171194 (Anatomy of a Drupal Theme), then crack open the Garland theme template files.
Copy the entire Garland theme directory to /sites/all/themes/my_garland and edit the code there (be sure to update the garland.info file to register your updated theme).
I highly recommend against modifying a base theme directly - it will make updating Drupal that much more difficult.

Dropped the "s" from themes in that directory path.

Colors in Garland can be changed with the color picker at: www.example.com/admin/build/themes/settings/garland
Garland is also a horrible Theme in which to learn about Drupal Theming, or do elaborate customization work. Try finding a solid base theme, such as Zen. It is regarded as one of the better documented themes.
Also, everything PrairieHippo said.
