How are your Japs doing?

Dont grow them anymore Vinny, too much faff for a crop that dosent store well

I've always grown them and usually have more success with them than spring planted sets. I sometimes pull them 'in the green' if I run short of onions. They have always stored fine for me but still get eaten before spring planted onions.
The red version never seem to run to seed on me like the spring planted version that's why I only grow red onions from seed in the spring (sown today).
I think it must be weather related as they are a tad behind where they should be but will probably catch up.

Vinny, what do you mean by ‘in the green ’ ?
