Oh, dear, finished the signs and there is 18 of them and that means 18 cups to plant and giggle around under the grow lamp.

Then there is the bag of 80, yes, 80, Stuttgarter onion bulbs I got for $1.68 cents at Walmart. Please answer this question about onion bulbs - do they have a short spread out root system or a deep root system? I need to know that so I can know how much soil they need to grow. I’m going to use the cheap 5 gallon plastic grow bags for all these onions. So, tell me how deep the soil needs to be. I know to plant them one inch deep but how much more soil do I need in there??

I really don't know. I'd have at least 8" under them.
