Perhaps you have some children who enjoy watching you scratch your head?

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.


That is weird. Could it be frost-heave? Or at least
something to do with the soil freezing and thawing?
