Title: growing onions
Post by: foresterone on January 28, 2008, 15:24:33
Many years ago the local nursery issued a step by step growing instruction sheet for show onions.  I grew some super size plants , alas the nursery closed & I mislaid the sheet. Although I never grew them to show I`d like have another go now I have an allotment . Anyone got any good ideas where to start

A bit of a cheat as I havent tried this before but these are the directions I'm going to follow this year...

Though to be honest if I can escape white rot and downy mildew I'll be happy  ;D
