Versatile Onions! Onions are among the first plants I can sow outside. They are a cold hardy crop, even a few weeks before the last frost date. They can take a frost, and thrive in the cooler temps of early spring. My gardens are in New England, zone 6b/7a.
I am sowing Ruby Red Long Day Onion, Pompeii White, Red Wethersfield, Utah Yellow, White Sweet Spanish, Red Beard Bunching Onion, and Chives. Follow along, and see my ONION SOWING TIPS!
Consider Watching and Subscribing on YouTube. It really helps me out!
Please give this a watch and perhaps, consider giving my video a like and subscribe to my channel. I could use all the help I can get.
For the last few years, I have not planted nearly enough Onion. This year, I am planting a more of each type of onion, as well as a new Variety for me: Red Weathersfield. I am hoping that the additional Onions sown, will help with The Hunger Gap come NEXT spring. Check out the video, for tips and technique of sowing your ***OWN* Onion!**
Most of you know, I prefer locally grown food. It's healthier for my family, and for the planet. In fact, I prefer to grow my own food. I know what goes into my foods, and what chemicals are NOT in my food. Also, It cuts down on carbon emissions, less trucking to get fresh foods to my table.
And that makes me smile... better for the planet, better for my own family.
