Short Day Onions

Posted by farmersteve N. AL Zone 7 (My Page) on

I am looking for short or intermediate day onions that are not of the sweet variety. I found an old thread that discussed this, but the two places that people suggested did not have varieties that fit this criteria.

If anybody knows of any varieties or of any seed houses that may have them, please post.

RE: Short Day Onions

Most of the pungent (storage) onions are the long day type. I don't know of any short day onion that is in this class. Don't know of any intermediate day onions that are pungent either, but I am not as familiar with this type.
