If you are growing for your own use, it may be fine.
When we tried it, we got onions with flat sides and our customers wouldn't buy
them. Could have been the variety we used or our growing climate, but it
didn't work for us to sell at farmers market.

Great list! I
just joined. I work for a large mental health non-profit that has just
established an organic produce farm to provide employment (and therapy) for our
clients. My Question: We grow many
thousands of storage and sweet onions which we start inside in non-plug
trays. I came across the idea of putting 4 to 5 onion starts into a single
plug of a larger plug tray (say a 24 count) and then transplanting those out
when the time is right. Coleman says they will grow in a clump and develop
normally. Anyone out there try this? Seems like a time saver…
