a container containing water. after two days the shoots have have become
nice and green.
i want to know that if plant it will i get onions growin underground or
what will happen.
thank u


If by "bag of onions" you mean the net bag of regular size onions then forget
it. They will flower and produce inferior onions if planted. get a bag of the
tiny onion sets and plant them. They will produce nice green onions at first
and those not picked for green onions will produce full size onions.


I heartily recommend Dixondale Farms
www.dixondalefarms.com for
onions. Be sure to get the right "day length" variety for your area.
Then follow Dixon's detailed instructions and you will get awesome
onions.
