Giant Red Onions anyone ?

[vegmandan]

Just grown my biggest red onions ever.
4lb 2oz.
Just for a laugh I only planted them in 20 litre pots of compost and they went bonkers.

Well done Dan! I've grown those before and they are quite tasty!

Am a regular reader of your blog and your efforts are truly inspiring - you must be well chuffed with these as you didn't take them too seriously at the start - or at least not as seriously as your other superb veg.

[Nicos]

Ooh, I'm growing some of those this year (mine are Robinson's seed) and although they're doing well, I don't think they've got to that size

Beautiful Dan, well done

love your diary. will take a better read of it when i have more time. well done! you should check out if you could do an online veg competition. i would be interested for starters. grew giant onions about twenty years ago. a cheater really as a friend gave me the plants. they went in outdoors and just seemed to explode overnight. do let me know if you give it a thought. din
