I only saw 1 group of onions & they didn’t look like what I was looking for.

That reminds me, I had one of those net bags with 80 red onion sets in it..that was basically growing in the bag in the greenhouse. I tossed it out by the smart pots last week, intending to plant them..oops, I forgot about them until I read your post.

I just looked at the cups under the grow lamp again, and I see numerous Lemon Balm coming up and the bits of green were not there this morning.

The two T squash tops will be totally out of the seed starter soil tomorrow. The T seeds in the other cup aren’t up yet, maybe tomorrow I’ll see green there. I’d like to have four which will make five with the one already in the permanent big pot. I replanted a few types of tomato seed and those are up, too.

Those onion bulbs you have - remember if you want them to grow large, put the bulb barely under the soil, most of mine, I had just a bit, a tiny bit, of the bulb showing on top of soil. They are growing so fast the green tops are from 4-5-6 inches tall already and very strong looking, thick bodies. They are in the net room safe from squirrel/bird murderers.

It hasn’t rained here, just very muggy outside. It is up to 60 degrees in the garden.

Good thing you remembered! Dang that’s a lotta onions.

Disappointed. They were talking about the red onions they had. I wonder if I missed them. (blind as a bat)
