let it grow and collect onion seeds galore

[gerryboy3699]

I'll try that thanks

[redherringbone]

When I saw this post, I did this with some onions that sprouted in my veg basket. I dunno, the the bulbs are soft now and I'm a little scared to eat any green from the top. I think these are headed for the compost bin. I did plant some onion sets though and they're coming along great.

Can't wait to make some spinach dip when I thin them out!

You can get tons of greens from planting garlic cloves also. The greens from onions and garlic are delicious and milder than the bulbs. Love the background sounds of the birds! :)

[gerryboy3699]

@Praxxus55712 hi there, should i plant the whole bulb or just the clove of garlic?

[Praxxus55712]

@gerryboy3699 You break the cloves apart and plant them individually.

Thanks for that ifo. I did a few myself and they were wonderful. Good reminder.

When I by sring onions, I simply cut them about 2cm from the roots, store them back in the fridge and when the whole bunch is used, plant them out. They come up over and over again, but I usually discard after two years and plant in another bed for rotation purposes. They taste stronger than the ultra fast grown bunch intially store bought. They can also be planted much closer together than brown onions.

nice Aussie birds calls in the background

[wanditawandita37]

are those bough from the super\market or they are especial

[permacultureli]

soooo....what do you get from this onion....the green leaves?....or other onions?...did not quite get it...but yes...fresh onions are wonderful...sweet and refreshing...nothing like store bought ones....I once planed a whole bag of little onions...they were good.

[malaysianews]

I wonder why my onion won't produce another onion. It just grew some onion leaf. After that the onion died.

Good hearing from ay Christian. I planted some onions in the garden before the ground froze and buried them with grass and leaves. Hope my little trick works. See ya.

[forgreenies]

I've done this before. Be careful when the actual onion bulb starts to rot away... the stink of it! and it doesn't come off your hands easily :)

[jackvr32]

nice..... going to add these to my list.... Cant wait till the weather gets better...

[oldguy537]

can you do this in pots, and how many would you put in ..

I do a few things in pots, so plants that need a lot of sun can be moved about and I can grow some things out of season, I live in the Mt's in N.S.W

[theproducegarden]

pots, no worries

[DizzyGee]
