Re: Onions

We use light cotton string and tie around seed pod stalks(close to bulbs),after
drying(usually in field or on open shelf,under shead),then tie to roof beams,or
nails on the sides of beams.I will say this,down here onions are only fall to
about May,then its too hot,and thats when they go upAlso,really look into the
Planting and harvest times of the Almanac's.It may sound dump to some like the
Organic Gardening,but like beans or peas planted on the wrong signs,will have
beautiful plants,very large,but fewer crop,and those planted on the right
signs,large amounts of harvest.Also,plants will seem to bolt,or jump straight up
into seed(like onions),if planted,on wrong signs.Best of luck!!!
