These biggie types are ideal for using a single slice on Burgers!!

But you would need to eat a lot of burgers to use up the onion

Not a problem.

I have grown Kelsae onions for twenty years or more, and if properly dried they usually keep untill the following spring. I say usually because last year I lost some for the first time. They froze solid during that exceptionally cold spell in Dec/Jan.

Earlier this year, I said on this forum i was trying onions from seed for the first time, because although I always had a reasonable crop from sets I'd never been able to grow very big onions. I've lifted the last of them today and I have to say they're right, I have got much bigger onions from seed. I grew half Beds Champion and half Ailsa Craig. Both have given a good crop, with very few failures or bulbs too small to be useful, and a decent proportion of them have been a very good size. The Ailsa Craig were bigger on average, with about 75% of them falling between 270g and 320g.

I'm convinced, and in future I'll always grow them from seed

hi shokkyy.i did half red onion from seed and half sets(red baron)and the ones from seed are far better,a bit slower to get going but the end result is a much darker red skin and they really sat up proud of the soil ,which is good root growth.i'll only do seed from now on too.!
