Title: Small or large onion sets?
Post by: bluecar on February 17, 2013, 12:53:41
Hello all.

A while back there was a thread on shallots and several people recommended growing small shallots to give bigger shallots when harvested.

Is the same true of onion sets?

Regards

Bluecar

Onion sets are grown abroard on poor soil especially for the British market. After planting they grow into mature onions. Plant March/April to mature late August/Sept.
