I grow yellows mainly and do so from sets.  I have had poor result from direct seeding in the fall but continue to try.  I sell directly to restaurants.  I do high density rows (where the set sets are nearly in contact with each other) and thin and sell as green onions at 2.50 a pound and then pull and dry onions all the while selling them direct to chefs till I run out.  My dried yellow onions are being bought for 2.50 a pound green or dried.  I do not sell any at market.

I am also in the Cincinnati, Ohio area.
