to plant overwintering onions.

I have loads still to plant, managed to plant a few rows in nov but I noticed in my shed I have loads left.

They will take up a lot of room so just want to check before I waste my time planting them and also taking up loads of space on my allotment.

Cheers

Not sure but I bought some last week which I am going to stick in a corner when it stays dry long enough. They have two choices and if they haven't done anything impressive by the time I have other stuff to grow on, they can be turfed out.

cheers, thats what I might do.

Thanks

You could plant them in pots indoors, quite close together. That way you'll be able to impress everyone with your early spring onions!

thanks snadger, I might try that to! I do have a lot to plant. Would they be ok in a green house in pots, I have a new one on order- woohoo
