Default Deflowering my onions?

"H" wrote in message

Some of my onions and garlic, planted as sets earlier this year, are
throwing out flower heads.

Should these be removed or left?

Best,

Could be viewed as a source of next years seed ?, I always let a few garlic
go to seed !!!, okay so go to bubils would probably be better, these then
planted out take a couple of years to mature but still grow into quite nice
bulbs eventually, I tend to stick then in amongst the flower beds where they
can spend plenty of time without hogging the veggie patches.
