Boutta make some chili up in here with the last tomato harvest that i picked right before frost killed everything
I do this every year in the spring. It's very rewarding and you can grow garlic this way as well.
I put the old sprouting onions in water so they grow roots, they will start sprouting from that when the light increases. Just the bottom of the onion should be touching water so it doesn't rot.
And I grow greens from the tiny planting onions in soil every year, they make a small delicious forest of onion shoots in just weeks. I do this in the spring, but my dad does it all year round under a grow light and gets a steady supply of onion and garlic shoots that way.
