I found red onion sets difficult too... planting with Red Baron, I cannot work out when Ailsa Craig and Red Baron sets go in at the same time the Reds always lag behind with very poor results. So last year I decided to have a go with seeds and had much better results. Got the seeds from Premier seeds too and will do the same again this season planting them earlier. Worth mentioning about the birds pulling up young plants and need protection with wire clotche until established . Thanks for no nonsense video.
Thanks Ivan, always a pleasure to watch. Thanks for sharing. Just a quick heads up, anyone who's interested home bargains selling vegetable and flower seeds for 49p.
I'm growing red onions for the first time this year! They're going in containers as I don't have anywhere else to plant them out to, and I'm looking forward to seeing the results.
Everything is an education with you Ivan I look forward to your videos
Thank you Ian much appreciated

great Emma well done
When seeds have germinated do they need much watering ?
Just enough so they dont dry out
Thank you
Only success I've ever had with red onion sets are the heat treated ones but there more pricey
reds for me can be a pain so i hope from seed works this year
Thank you
