Onion sets

Just got some onion sets from a friend and was wondering when's best to put 'em in? I don't think that they are the japanese type.

Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

It might be worth keeping them in the fridge, or they may be useless for planting when the time comes.
