Im not trying very hard to grow onions from seeds this year. It DOES seem easier to grow plants grown by a specialist in Texas.... It seems difficult to grow seeds to transplant size in my limited environments that I have available. ...that said, I have (a very few) Walla Walla and some shallot seeds started in this little container, along with spinach. So far, both of them as well as broccoli seedlings are doing best (compared to trying to grow somewhere in the house) in the cold garage V8 Nursery where it has been mid-30's to mid-50's:
In the house on heat mats, I started Sweet Peppers and more Hot Peppers, etc.
