Home made compost in a raised onion bed. 140 onion sets just planted ;

compost bins full of chicken, pheasant, duck, partridge carcasses , fish heads and bones, vegetable peelings, grass cuttings, egg shells , poultry guano, etc, and left for four or five years for the worms to do their work.

I look forward to giving you periodic updates as to the progress of the onions !

Cheers.

When I grow so many I’ll lift them at various sizes, early ones are pickled then the big ones are done the same as your grandads.

You can thin them out if you find them too close if you want some decent size onions.

Look nice and healthy them. Learned alot off my grandad when I had my plot. Got told to leave the onions in until the tops full start to droup. Same with spuds the tops start to turn.
