I have got quite a number of onion sets to plant out and I was wondering if there is stil time to plant out the japanese variets senshyu yellow? I have not been down the allotment due to personal reasons and the weather which has not helped.
Also is there still time for garlic?
Thanks

Agree! ;D
Do it quick and if the weather doesn't turn cold they should be OK. The onions may not be so big though.
Given that mine ended up enormous last year - seriously large beasts - a little later planting is probably ok - I found that the huge onions meant that either everything ha more onions in it than anything else, or they ended up in the compost!
:) Yes should be OK, the gardeners calender I have still says in December get them in if you haven't all ready, but get them in the weekend if its not too wet,so do get a move on Snail. lol ;D ;D
May the corn be with you.
Just to let you all know I planted them on November 15, 2006. It took me 6 hours. Thats digging the bed to planting the onions and garlic. It was a good day out. The sun was warm but it did go cloudy. It was a very pleasent day for the time of year.
