this made me realize I have no idea how onions reproduce lmao
I thought i could just plant them and they'd bud off like potatoes but i guess that's not how it works and they'd just make seeds and I'd have to plant the seeds and once I heard that I was like "i ain't doin all that for an onion"
yeah lol I just looked it up and learned
I guess some can produce mini bulbs that you can plant and that's kind of like budding with an extra step
They bloom and make seeds. But if you grow them from seed it takes a very long time to grow. The tiny onions that we buy for planting are actually prestarted in a way so they have time to grow within a season.
