I planted the Candy onions this past spring and had a great harvest from them. I got their new catalog in the mail last week. Will definitely order from them again.

The first order was lost in the mail and I emailed and they shipped them again.

You all probably know this already, but I worked really really hard planting onions for years before I saw this video and saved myself a lot of time.

Short version is just throw the seeds in a flat and lightly cover. Don't sow individual seeds. You can pull the seedlings apart without really damaging the roots when it's time to transplant.

The farm I drove for does the onion seeds, said it's a whole lot cheaper than buying plants. They sow them in flats in the greenhouse around this time of the year and then transplant them in I believe March. Not sure how many acres they plant but they put 60K per acre.

When you only plant about 100 plants, it not that big a deal. Dixondale does not sale seed.
