A large and handsome onion

by

First onion I’ve ever grown. It was a learning experience! The seedling need to be kept constantly moist or they dry out immediately. Out of about 18 seeds, only two were harvestable, but I blame that entirely on my inexperience. I think more consistent watering would have improved them even more. I harvested my first of these today and it’s a very large and handsome onion.

Highly recommend

Highly recommend. I can only eat sweet onions due to a health issue and had been wanting to try one suitable for northern gardens. These germinated well and I lost very few seedlings. The onions were a large size with very good flavor. From 2 packets I harvested approximately 50lbs of onions.
