It seems rather silly writing an opinion on onions, but it is quite surprising the amount of people who dont know how to grow onions....i always turn my patch of garden that i have allowed myself for allotment over in the winter and dig in the horse manure from the local stable,then i leave the groung for the frost to break down....then at easter time (that is the correct time to plant onions) i start to rake the soil over,getting a fine tilth,i have some very useful spare floor boards that I use for standing on (so I dont sink in the groung too much) I lay them across the groung where I will be planting the onions, this makes the ground quite firm when you stand on them, you see onions do not like soft ground,if you plant them in soft soil they will get wet rot a white fairy fungus. then you can't plant onions in that spot for a few years, so make the groung firm, and the best onoins that i have grown were STUTTGARTER GAINT AND STURONI can recomend these onions as long lasting. I hope this had made sense to you and good luck with your veg. garden .
