That is a disappointment for you mjg
I'm sure you are not alone though. This year has been difficult to say the least.
As always with gardening, I am telling myself next year will be better. I'll admit to buying some Ailsa Craig onions seeds the other day for sowing early. Having to grow everything covered by barrier netting means scaling down the amount I grow next year, but over the short dark days of winter, I am a bit addicted to having my onion seedlings around.
