Supposedly when harvesting onions, you are supposed to pull them and

I the past, I always laid them on an ols sheet on the patio, and moved
them into the garage or greenhouse overnight. Never has an problems
doing this, just curious as to the formal method.


The same advice applies to potatoes. That makes no sense to me either.
