How does one grow their own onion sets?

Marie in Missouri


Marie,
I personally do not have good luck with planting onions sets up here in
Northeast Ohio. I am zone 5 and I seem to have the best luck with just
starting my own onions from seed into flats in February. Then transplant
them outside when the ground is workable. Ususally around mid May here. I
have been growing softball size onions every year when starting my own, but
can't seem to even get them to golfball size when planting onion sets. But
this is fine with me, I love growing my own little onions plus everytime I
give them a "Haircut", I use the little clippings when I cook, or right on
top of my salad!
