In need of an onion and garlic how to..
« on: October 17, 2010, 15:21 »
My winter onions and garlic arrived yesterday from Dobies. Trouble is I'm not sure how to plant them, how deep do they need to be planted? and roughly how far apart?
Thank you in advance.  :)

If sets, assume they are, I would say a hole 3/4 - 1 inch deep and drop one in each.
Say 5-6 inches apart.

Sounds too easy :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:
