At this place I have had lots of fun with onions
the past few years, made more so
when they are huge enough to make folk say "you
cant grow those here"!
This is my plan, OMMV!
at the longest day of the year onions here quit
making plant and start making bulb, so
decent onions come from plants well established at
that time.
seed bulk in March and as soon as they are up
transplant into 84 or 128 plugs,
constant liquid feed at 200ppm of 20-20-20,
cut back to 3 inches high with sissors several
times
as soon as possible set into 6 x 6 spacing, 4 rows
on black plastic.
I have never added water, but this excessivly wet
year the crop is almost too large.
This year:(All Fedco) White Wing, Red Wing,
Dakota Tears, shallot Prisma.
Usually some Ailsa Craig; also New York Early
and _expression_ when available
