Hadn’t paid attention to my onion bulbs. I kept back only the smallest bulbs of the 100 (supposedly) in the WM $3 bag.

So I’m guessing I put 75 down. I now have 60 plants coming up. Was surprised when I went out to water (now that the weather is turning). We had some snow and 2 or 3 really cold nights but they survived in the pots. Well 60 ot 75 did.

We got a lot of rain today and then Sunny the next few days with better temps. I’ll have to count again in 3 days to see if anything has changed.

Meanwhile, my indoor starts are doing well. The watermelon REALLY took off. The plants are all now 3-4 inches long. It’s fun to see how they turn away from the window at night to point towards the single lamp going in the living room.

Squash are coming on strong, too. I have GOT to find a place to put them. Same with the chives, and some tomato seedlings are starting.

Sounds like some good progress. Hubby was able to get some things planted today. My herbs came in so I need to plant re pot them tomorrow.
