Carla,

Which mechanical transplanter do you use to plant the onions? Will you
plant them bare root or as a plug?


Thanks,

We can finally plant onions this weekend. But, the tops have grown a foot.
We are going to try and use our mechanical transplanter, but the tops are
too long to go through unless I trim them back. Can I do this? I know the
tops are trimmed before shipping, but we usually are able to plant right
away.
We doubled our order this year and there is no way we can crawl down the
rows setting 15,000 onions by hand. We are too far behind for that.
We have to get them done this weekend. I'm feeling the stress!

Perkins, OK
