I grew onion sets one year by starting onion seeds in a flat, close
together, and having them stay there all season, then eventually not
watering them any more so that they dry out. They did grow the next year -
so it did work.

There are probably very particular ways that one prepares and stores them to
last for the next season - but the above method is a rudimentary one.


I prefer starting onions from seed - it isn't hard, and allows one to enjoy
the emergence of seedlings when it is still snowy and cold outside:^)
