Thanks DD, but I’m not doing any this year or overwintering onions, I’ve got too much other stuff going on & I’m hoping to get a poly tunnel sorted as well so thought I’d cut my self some slack :nowink:

It's only down the road from me. but I can get the same garlic cheaper at Thompsons the local GC so go there.   I think you pay for the name and their cafe is soooo expensive.
