My onions have done brilliantly and a more than big enough.but I really want the space.  Can I dig them up and leave them to die down out of the soil?

Sorry to but in Digeroo but I've got a row of onions in front of the raspberries. I think I will do the same. Any ideas what to put there. What should follow onions? It's not an onion bed, it just seemed a shame not to use the space.

If they are Autumn ones nothing... or you will keep treading on them...  ;D

I really want to tip out the onions and put some kale there instead.  Not sure whether this is a good idea. 

They are in one of the first areas I dug so they had wide paths between double rows or onions, so I was going to dig up the paths and leave the onion beds, but the plants have now flopped over and taken over the space between the rows.  The whole thing is a terrible mess.

Best lifted off the soil in this wet weather... I use the windowsill of the big greenhouse...  :)

What wet weather?  No greenhouse.   Will give them to my daughter she has a shed. Thanks for the advice.
