Growing Onion Sets

When to Plant Onion Sets - Early crop in Zone 4.

How to Plant Onion Sets - You need to buy sets to plant.  Make a row 1 inch deep.  Plant sets fat side down, point side up, 2-3 inches apart.

After Planting Onion Sets - Keep weeded.  They push out of the ground, this is okay, that's how an onion grows.

Harvesting Onion Sets - You can pull for green onions.  They should be about the size of a pencil to start pulling or leave in soil to get big.  These are not a large onion or sweet.  They can be picked during the summer to use.  When the tops fall over and dry they can be pulled for storage.  Good storage onion!
