Only one of my onions has a flower ~ I want to leave them in the ground a couple more weeks - will this flower affect the onion in any way...?

Thanks guys!!
I was super-pleased with them actually ~ there was a few of them that hadn't got past a shallot size, but most of them looked like, well, proper onions...!!! (and tasted darned good too - used one in my chilli con carne for tea last night! )
Can I plant kale and Brocolli in that bed to overwinter now...? ( I've got some plants sitting waiting in the GH that I started earlier - ready to plant)Last edited by SusieG; 02-08-2016, 02:28 PM.~~~ Gardening is medicine that does not need

Hi Susie, I just looked it up, both Broccoli and Kale are Brassicas, so yes you can plant them there after onions. I would also add some vegetable granule organic fertiliser into the soil to give them some more food.
Actually I am currently using my potatoes soil to plant loads of lettuce, spinach and flowers!
