Mine went in about a week ago along with the garlic.

I've got all my garlic, shallots and elephant garlic in. The last half of the overwintering onions to go in in the next few days.

My over winter blades of grass go in this weekend if weather allows

I ordered my red onions today but they are not to be planted til Feb March it says on the blurb.

Most of the mail order companies have got autumn planting sets available now for planting and are also taking orders for spring planting ones. 

The catalogues coming out now may just concentrate on the spring planting ones, but the autumn planting ones are there on the websites still.

Put mine in 3weeks ago, some are just starting to push through, said on packet to bury them. Better net them now to stop the birds pulling them out.

Put mine in a couple of weeks they are netted at the moment from birds and local cats

[Welsh Merf]

Yesterday I finished planting for winter: "Electric" red onions, "Shakespeare" brown onions, "Marco" garlic and "Musselburgh" leeks, so let's see what happens, eh!

Put mine in 3weeks ago, some are just starting to push through, said on packet to bury them. Better net them now to stop the birds pulling them out.

The birds are not usually a problem once they are rooted and shooted!
