I don't know, I'm bored. Do you guys grow onions?

You ever watch this guy on youtube? I miss him. He stopped making videos due to health issues.

Yes, I grow them from sets. I haven't had good results from seeds.

I have an onion garden that I have kept going for 8 years. Everyone in my family loves onions and we also use them medicinally (a slice of onion on a plate next to the bed to keep the sinus' open).

I always wanted to try from seeds but I feel like they wont be as big for some reason. Or maybe I heard you have to wait for the 2nd year or something?

Yeah we grown them from sets. We found a variety that grows well and stores very well for us.

I have tried to grow from sets for years. Never much luck getting large ones. I think I plant them too deep.
