If it's still a whole head, then you'll get only a bunch of small single cloves again out of it. If you want more garlic, dig it up carefully, separate and replant with spacing and it will recover quickly.

but 100% worth the effort. It will recover quickly and should have some lovely garlic by end of July/Beg Aug.
