The only time I can find onion sets (green onion) around here is in the spring time. I plant them every couple of weeks right up till the weather gets really hot in July, when they usually die away.
In early fall the weather cools down enough to plant them again, but I cannot find onion sets in the fall. Is there a way to keep the sets till fall if I buy extra ones now? Will they keep in the crisper of the refrigerator and grow if I plant them in the fall? If I sow seeds in the spring or summer, will they reach maturity before fall? If so, what kind of seeds do I get to grow green onions?? I have seen lots of onion seeds like spanish, etc. but not sure I have ever seen scallions or green onion seeds.
I would appreciate any help you can offer me.
