I can't get over how big the Dixondale onions are - as you say, much larger than those we grow ourselves, it seems. My onion seedlings width more closely resembled a chive than a pencil.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6125578595363888138.post-59574611535778860572015-04-21T09:38:28.714-04:002015-04-21T09:38:28.714-04:00I bought Dixondale onions for the first time this ...I bought Dixondale onions for the first time this year too. I hope they do well. Two of the bunches were really nicely sized, but the walla walla onions were tiny. There were hundreds in one bunch as the bunch was the same size as the other two bunches. I hope they get big though. My transplants tend to be comparable, but I just didn't want to deal with growing them this year. I'll see how they do too. If they do just as well I'll probably continue. If not I'll be growing my own again next year.

Mine are already starting to show signs of bulbing up and the extras that I've been harvesting as overgrown scallions have been delicious. My garlic though is a rust infested mess. Winter must have been brutal if your kale didn't make it. Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.com
