That was so simple and brief. Thank you.
I just started adding shallots to my veggie stir fry. I love them. I am hoping to grow them next cool season.
Yes shallot has better taste than garlic.
Just found your channel. 🥰🌱❤️ I recently pulled up what I thought were undeveloped onions, but found they were shallots. I think I’ll grow more shallots than onions next year. Thank you for these tips! ❤
I love them, think I'll have a go. Thanks
Just planted some for the first time, possibly not deep enough, thanks for the video ( Melbourne)
Put a little mulch around them and they shoud be fine....
@@johnnyAGardening thank you
Nice content. Great voice. Soothing.
Thank for watching...Happy Gardening
First harvest of a French type today. Finally invested in some last fall. I have been growing the Zebrune from seed. They seem to very well also.
My question is, do you save some of your own stock for replanting in the fall? If it’s possible, any different about storage until then?
Thanks! I’ll appreciate the help. 😊
We do save our own to replant. Starage is basically the same, cool, dry, dark. We split them into individual bulbs and check them to make sure non have stated to rot.. Has worked well for a number of years..
Scapes are tasty!
They are indeed.....
How many new bulbs do you get from one planted bulb in general?
Its a bit random but usually 3 - 5

Thank you
Hi, a couple of questions. Can you grow these from store bought and do they grow okay in pots?
Well worth a try frrom store bought as long as they are in good condition and not treated in any way. As for pots, yes a large pot should work if you cant grow them in ground.
I used store bought shallots and they are growing 3 plants to each bulb. 50 days in the garden. Still growing and cutting the top greens.
@@kevinmanning4880 Hello Kevin, they are a great plant to grow, easy and tasty as well. How are you using the green tops, we use them in stir fries. Thanks for watching.
@@johnnyAGardening hello, I'm using them on baked potatoes and on top of my salad. I also use them cut the length of toast to use on top of soft boiled egg and melted cheddar. Basil goes well with it too.
@@kevinmanning4880 Great! Thanks for the reply. I’ll be doing this soon. I make a few noodle recipes that always require some.
