Even if allowed to mature for 2 years they will still not make as large a bulb as the bulb onions. If you plant bulb onion from seeds you can use the thinnings or immature onions as green onions also. I am in Northern Missouri and do not plant my tomatoes in the garden until the 1st of June. I am planting my green beans and corn though. Usually I start sweet potatoes now and plant in June when the weather stabilizes. Also be aware that they are predicting hail and winds Sunday night.

Are these a certain kind of onion that you planted for green onions and will bloom and give you seeds? I'm doing my best to get my tomatoes in the ground this weekend and green bean seeds (here in Mid Missouri). I'm a little late but hopefully it will be okay. Are you just now starting the sweet potato slips? THANKS AGAIN!

My peas always seemed to survive.. They're tough little buggers. <br /><br />Everything is looking good regardless of the groundhog & weather..

I am not expecting all that much being a beginner and such crazy weather conditions but I feel more productive nonetheless.
