Episode Synopsis

Though easy to plant, it's not always a sure bet that you'll get huge onion bulbs each season. In fact, onions can be a bit finicky. In this episode of the Beginner's Garden Podcast, I go over the "long and short" (pun intended -- you'll understand after you listen to the episode) of growing onions. I talk about: which onions you need to grow for your latitude when to plant when NOT to grow from seed what triggers bulb growth what causes bolting (when an onion sets seed instead of producing a bulb) what to do if your onion plant does bolt  Show notes at http://journeywithjill.net/2018/02/grow-onions-successfully/
