When is it best to sow Japanese onion seeds, please?

[Potty Plotty Lotty]

About the 18th August.

These ones aren't Japanese but the same principle applies.

According to Suttons

Specially bred for sowing mid-late August to mature in the following July. Not suitable for spring sowing.

Yep the Forum is converting the   "+"s in the URL to spaces which in turn get converted to "%20"  . . .  so I simply created a short link to the original Suttons page on my URL Shortener.

Thanks all for replies. Will start to get the onion bed ready when my early potatoes are finished.
