Onion sets



Spring is a bit earlier this year and I know winter is not over, but there are some plantings we can do even in February. While I order most of my vegetable plants online, they get delivered at planting time suitable to our Zone(7-A). I ordered 100 Sweet Savannah Hybrid and 100 Red Hamburger onion sets. They came in yesterday! When the plants come in via Fed Ex, you need to be ready to get them in the ground ASAP - Which I did last night, and THANKS for the rain! We should start picking onions in about 9 weeks and do so all summer. I don't care how much you water with a hose or irrigation, nothing sets a new plant in better than a good rain. Now, I can't wait for my potatoes to arrive!
