Winter onions

Hi

I bought too many onion sets this time is it ok to keep the rest until spring and plant them then thanks

Thanks for that - better plant the rest!!

Yup DD - thanks... I'm here right on cue...

They are just  filler to have onions a couple of months before the main crop are ready. I always start to pull mine on 1st May each year and use them as green onions in white sauce.. a bit like leeks in sauce but tastier. Then by the time the winter onions are bulbed up a bit and all eaten the main crop will be ready to start eating as well. Hence we are normally totally self sufficient in onions.. I then follow them with beetroot or some late peas or beans..
