They're called "bulbils," and you can plant them in the fall as you would
the cloves. Usually, the first year you'll get a "round" that looks like a
small onion. Re-planting this will get you a regular garlic bulb the next
year.
Good way to eliminate soil-borne diseases if these are a worry.
Very small bulbils take longer to get to full-sized garlic.
