On the subject of giant onions , i've just sown a dozen in a couple of 3inch pots in John Innes seed compost with fingers crossed and put them in the propagator.I bought them from Victorian Nurseries and are called Shirley giant onions , just wandered if anyone else has tried them and with what success ?

I started some kelsea seeds in January along with some bedfordshire champions and aylsa craig, They are romping away and have planted a couple of rows out already.
   I hear people saying all the time on the plot "don't bother with seed onions, waste of time", we'll see :), I have high hopes.
I'm banned for being obnoxious (not pompous as you might have thought)
