Default Spring onions in the autumn

Hi,

planted some WHite Lisbon to pull as spring onions, but I haven't used
them all and the remainder are now small normal onions with some top
growth still on.

Should I pull them and eat them now, or are they likely to grow more if
left over winter?

Google says wait until they stop growing and the skin turns brown, then
lift on a sunny day to dry.

Not likely to happen now, is it :-)

Just wondering if they would overwinter, then grow on like onion sets, or
if they will just frost and rot.

Cheers
