garlicky leek seed?

I ordered and grew several types of garlic this year. Much to my
surprise, most of them put out beautiful seed pods and after I pulled the garlic
out of the ground I laid them to dry with the seed bulbs suspended over
containers so I could gather any that fell.
I now have lots of wonderful plump seeds that I'd like to plant and see
what happens. I have kept the seeds for each variety separate and labeled.
Each variety of seeds looks different. The varieties I grew that produced
seeds are:
Kilarney Red -
Persian Star-
Nootka Rose
Romanian Red
Inchelian Red, not all of this variety produced seed heads, just a couple
My husband does keep 10 beehives in the garden so everything gets
pollinated.. All of this garlic was planted about 1 foot apart in a square with
each variety in a separate row. Has anyone planted garlic from seed before?
