Keep those crops coming



I like to keep a succession of crops that are frequently used in the kitchen available and one of those must haves are spring onions. I clump module sow these. This just entails sowing half a dozen or so seeds per module and when they are the size as shown in the top picture with modules full of roots they are planted out at 6" spacings. The second and third pictures show ones that are being pulled now as required. Its quick, simple and the most productive and foolproof way I have found yet to get good spring onions.

lovely onions David.
Mine never grow well - I think I have the special 3-years-to-mature variety
