I want to plant seeds in late fall

I am wondering about covering them. In the romcom, come
spring, she removed the straw mats to reveal 2 to 4" plants
growing under the mat. Then she transplanted them. I
won't be transplanting.

so you want to plant seeds and expect them to
survive until spring and then to start growing?

i guess you could try it and some will take but
the spacing and thinning will likely need to be
adjusted otherwise you won't get very good results
if you are trying to get onion bulbs. if you are
instead just interested in green onions then you
can plant more seeds more closely spaced and then
pull and thin as they develop and eat what you
remove.
