For the last several years, our onion sets 'walk' overnight. This year, they are walking in the hoophouse as well as in the fields. While we plant biointensively, on intensively within rows, the next morning beds will have gatherings of sets in them. Usually 3 sets bunched together by their tops.

This even happens if we remay or net the beds but, for some reason, it does not happen as frequently.

I've got some photos on the web. Maybe you can explain this mystery for us.

Thanks -Allan
