I dug some of our Red Onions the other day. I was curious to see what surprises were stored underground and to be honest I was a little disappointed. Since these onions have been in the ground for about a year now I guess I was expecting the onions to be BIG; big like softball big but nope. They're rather small and unimpressive, however, I need take much of the blame. I'm sure letting them flower like I did had a negative effect on their size, as all there energy went to the 3' tall flowering stalk. They were cool looking and the bees certainly liked them. Taste will be the next test...
