    Hi Fred. I bought soil from ASDA and it was so fibrous and an insult to the name soil. I honestly wonder how a company can buy crap in and not look at it first. It's their reputation as well. I put mine in the compost heap to mix under as I didn't have the heart to plant anything into it. Your onions are looking great. You can add sulphhate of ammonia to feed them. I use it on my kelsae.
