Given that it’s the middle of May here in Southern New England, it’s pretty clear I should have planted the onion seeds inside many months ago if I wanted to grow onions of any size this season.
It appears, however, that growing onions from seeds is still possible even this late in the onion growing season.
There seem to be 2 viable options at this point.
1. Plant onion seeds to have green onions all summer long.
2. Plant onion seeds to grow onion sets for next year’s planting.
My vegetable garden will be getting planted this weekend so I’m thinking I’ll do both…have some lovely green onions for summer cooking and harvest onion sets for next year.
Of course, now that I know I will even get the onion sets in earlier than May.
