We grow 1.5/2 acres of potatoes to sell though a few honesty boxes locally. I have a small bit of space left in the potato field this year so I decided to buy a few KGs of onion sets to give them a go. Hoping they would be sellable in the honesty box along side the potatoes
I know very little about growing onions or any veg really. I plan to pull up a few drills with the drill plough and set them in manually.
Any advice on spacing, fertiliser, spays, harvesting and storing or general things to do or not do etc would be appreciated.
Like the title says this is small scale, only planting 4/5 kg of sets, just to give it a go, test the water and learn a bit more about simple veg growing
