    There are also several types of perennial onions, so keep those in mind. Some of them are Egyptian Walking Onions, Welsh Onions, and Multiplier onions...sometimes known as potato onions.

    Great video- thanks for the info! I'd love any tips for protecting squash plants from vine borers. They got the better of me last year. Also, guidance for succession sewing in a small garden would be much appreciated. It's hard to know when early crops should be done and replaced with the next succession. Can't wait to see more content from you!

    Thanks, Alicia! Great feedback! In the meantime, this might be helpful: I have a Raised Bed Layout plan that shows what goes in and what goes out in each season. Even if you don't have raised beds, it gives an overview of what needs to be pulled and what to replace it with. You can find it here: thedallasgarden.com/raised-bed-layouts/

    Onions bulb in response to daylength, so since daylength is decreasing in the fall, there isn't enough light to trigger the bulbing response.

    My onions did terrible this year. The bulbs all got mushy. We did have them in our raised bed with a drip line so maybe they were overwatered. 🥴 great informative video. I was not going to try them again but with the info in this video I think I might try it. Is it ok to plant onions where potatoes grew this year?

    Really helpful - I'm excited to try onions now! I'm curious about your crop in last year's freeze. Did you plant in late January last year and did they make it? Or did you need to replant in late Feb?

  • @nc8524

    I didn't know you should store cured onions in fridge! I thought that would maybe make them mushy, esp if stored together in big bag, but I only assumed i guess.Would it be better to store my store bought onions in fridge too? What's best temp? And what's too cold? I usually leave mine out room temp in North Texas.

    Yep, for longer storage, keep your store-bought onions in the fridge. They don't get mushy. I can typically store my homegrown onions in the fridge after curing through December.

    Thanks, Mark. I'm currently in the second year of running something I call The Dallas Tomato Trials where we test heirlooms for their suitability here. Last year's stand outs were Chocolate Stripes, Cream Sausage, Brandywine Suddath's Strain, Amana Orange, Azoychka, and Black Cherry. Here is a list of the varieties that we are testing this year: thedallasgarden.com/2021-dallas-tomato-trials-selections/ .

    I live in Wichita Falls TX, what month would you recommend sewing seed in a raised bed, Short Day. I tried last year, sewing in Dec. I had the most wonderful looking tops and horrible bulbs, my raised beds are in full sun. Short day also. I don't think I over nitrogen the plants. I don't remember the variety but they said short day.

    For Wichita you probably want to wait until late January. We plant ours in mid-January. But make sure that you are planting the "starts" and not onion seed. Onion seed needs to be planted wayyyy back in the fall and it's not very reliable. I order my starts from Dixondale Farms and they still have stock.
