Again, the garlic in
>>805071 is from softneck garlic that decided to not be softneck and bolted. I'm trying to get seed from that, and if I do, I'll be the first person that I know of who has done so. Pic related is from a line that I have gotten true seed from in the past.
Once you've removed your bulbils, that will free the flowering head up to put energy towards the flowers, which is what you want. You inevitably will miss a few bulbils, especially if you are doing a large number of plants. It is a good idea to come back a few days later to check. Pic related is one where I missed a few. They're gone now.
