Looks like the back corner of our garden. I plant this type of onion every fall and by the next season we have all those onions to use up. (multipliers I guess you call them or bunching. Either way they always fill out a corner in the garden) Looks good Cowboy. If you ever need a taste tester I'm always on call. :>)

I've never keep seeds from onions. How is it done. How many from each plant? This has got me thinking, i have about 80 sets growing and now i will let a few bolt and gather the seeds. Any info will be appricieted

Stove looks like something I might like to give a try. I do love my coleman but it looks like something like this would be a real space saver.

Not sure about the onion seed hunter as down here I just save back as many of the bulbs as I think I might need and plant them in the fall ( this bunching varity anyway) and as they mature they muliply and in my garden anyway. a couple dozen ends up being a couple hundred bulbs. Not large but for sure full of taste. I raised these also when I lived in Iowa so they work well up north also.

Here is a little about my stove...they work great but it takes some tunin' kind of like a carburator of sorts. I have some mods to make to mine after trying to cook on it. I think they are worth the effort though. To me better than most because your fuel is already where you are going!

I dunno MJ? Crash had veggies before I was planted good. Not sure if this will work or not...just something I was gonna try. This bundle was over 3 ft. tall a month ago.
