I ventured outside for a few minutes to snap these.

Autumn onions, Senshyu Yellow, first time grown from seed, sown 16th august last year.

   

and garlic planted 26/9/22

   

and recently sown seedlings (29/12/22) in a cold greenhouse.

   

The farthest are sturon (about100) then left to right bedford (40), up-to-date (30) and sweet spanish (3)

All in all not doing too badly given the cold spells we have had. Hopefully they will romp away when it warms up.

I just found 3 of my garlic bulbs from last years crop at the bottom of my onion basket. Is it to late to sow them, I’m thinking of sowing them in the poly tunnel like I have done for the last 2 years, except that I would normally have them sowed in November.

^^^ that's Veggie's answer to everything, and I totally agree with her Smile . The garlic's got two chances.
