Onion germination
Hi
well February is here and I'm excitedly planting seeds in heated propagator(s). I have onion sets well established on the allotment, but have also planted some seeds (ailsa craig) in the propagator. The shoots seem long and weedy to my (inexperienced) eye - and frankly - I'm wondering what to do next - none of my books, magazines seem to advise on this situation - if it is one! I have opened up the vents on the propagator - do I just let them go for now? plant out in March? My learning curve is mightily steep ) Little Weed |

I generally plant out mid March. Gill M Hi the propagator is heated - but our house probably has poor light (in any window). I'll try them out of the propagator in the bathroom window - thanks for your advice. LW ) |
