Onions
Onions at this time of year will now start to really grow away well and the difference in a week is amazing. I planted my onions a little later this year as my first batch i felt were not very good so they are slightly behind but are looking good. Here you can see them under the grow light in there 5inch pots.
I have several batches and hope to pull each batch 3 weeks before each show for perfect skin condition. Some will be planted in the polytunnel and others outside in the garden and the rest in the allotment.

Im not sure if he has any left as the price is now 0.00 which normally means out of stock. You might want to email him and see if he has any left or ask when they are back in.
