Oinns garlic & straw
« on: March 26, 2007, 15:56:35 »
We've got our winter onions and garlic surrounded by straw.  One of the other allotmenteers noticed and said she thought that this might encourage rot and hinder ripening.

Any opinions?

I put grass cuttings all over mine, and I've never had any problem.
