Default Onion planting advice

Last year, I planted onions very early in the spring, and most of them
bolted. I planted onions later in the spring, and had a fairly good crop.
The local extension service says to plant onions as early as January, but
I'm afraid to do it again this year for fear of having them all go to seed
again. Is there any general consensus about when onions should be planted,
and when they should not?
