Default should I pull up my onions


"Andy" wrote in message

I have about 60 red onions in the ground with many of the tops now fallen
over but still green. We have had a lot of rain this week so should I pull
up the onions to stop them rotting? They are in a raised bed about 20cm
high and are sitting on top of the soil with just the roots in the ground.

Thanks
Andy


2 years back the red onions did nothing until a good feed in November. The
bottoms filled out nicely then.
