The old adage 'Plant large shallots if you want a bunch of small shallots to grow, and small shallots if you are after one or two large shallots' usually works, but not always. The logic behind it is that large shallots are usually comprised of a number of shallots in a single corm whereas small shallots rarely make a large bunch of shallots.
I have a few from last year which I may put in if my allotment soil ever becomes workable.
Any luck recording a video Vinny?
