Strange things, Spring Onions!

Just pulling the last of those sown end April last year. Still perfect - about pencil thick.

Two later sowings long finished.

TIM!!  Very off topic, but I've been away for c.3 years and hadn't seen your name pop up as often as I remembered it did so was wondering if all was well with you. So glad it is!

Yes, I am a bit cracked... ;D

Hah well I am blowed if I can get spring onions to grow! Then again I never manage radish usually...oh the hilarity.
Well This year I am starting them off in pots to see if I can't get some that way.
And (on topic) last year's forgotten onions started to sprout back up! The onion seems sort of rotten! but they have lovely stems (scapes?) which I have been putting in salad and cooking with various bits, very mild and tasty. so all is not lost I guess!
As Tim would say "Never underestimate the regrowth!!!"

The late sowing grown in the polytunnel are just about ready now.

Some years back now Tim suggested growing them in modules and planting out a bunch at a time-it works like a dream-well done that man :)

I cleared all my snips and carrots the other week and discover a few springys still happily growing away in between them.    ;D ;D ;D
