Just grown my biggest red onions ever.
4lb 2oz.
Just for a laugh I only planted them in 20 litre pots of compost and they went bonkers.:eek:

I'm very jealous.... I've ordered some Aislae seed for next year, I'll have a 20x10 greenhouse and a 14x6 polytunnel... the polytunnels job until some peppers and chillis get planted in it in May is to grow big onions, and I'll prolly have a few in the GH..... My aim is to grow a 4lb onion....
can I get some hints and tips on compost, fertilizer and watering regimes?.... I'll try to sort out some extra lighting but I'd like to use solar/wind powered LED stuff and organic fertilizer etc... (know, "you old hippy!")
