There are lots of articles on this page on the main website (also accessed by clicking Growing Help underneath the main banner at the top of the page), including several on growing members of the onion family and a sowing / harvesting chart.

theres no need to sieve them soil just give it a good dig over - sieving will take too much time. dig in a good general fertiliser like BFB or growmore. they can be planted now!
