I was late planting onion sets this year and they didn't grow much. When I pulled the usable onions I missed a lot. They were so small they'd disappeared. Now they're shooting!
My plan is to leave them until next year and see what happens. Logically, I would expect them to flower/seed which got me thinking - could I create a permanent onion bed in the same way as I'm trying to do with leeks and spring onions.
Does an onion split into two with side bulbs or does it die after flowering?
What if you remove the flowers - would it bulk up?
All this and more I need to know. Can anyone help please?
