Question: Im about to plant a bunch of red onion sets, they are about an inch or so in diameter, What I want to do is trim the green tops as they grow for salads etc. will this kill the onion underground or if I leave a little of the green will it continue to grow
thanks in advance
You could if you didn't cut too much off but IMO, you'd be much better
off to plant a few bunches of chives to get that onion like flavour in
salads. Chives give you really good bang for you buck and once you have
them, you have them forever and you can increase your yield by just
dividing each clump each year and tucking new smaller clumps into unused
corners all round the garden. I even have them in amongst the 'flower'
beds.
BTW, could you please to correct your line length so that it wraps
properly for more easy reading please.
