In my feed and seed store, I find onion plants both fall and spring, and onion sets in the spring. My only experiences with onions has been planting dried out in the bottom of the veggie crisper in the frig green onions whenever I find them, and planting sets last spring. I have pulled them along during the summer, using them as I needed them, in whatever form I found them, some were at the green onion stage, others had formed bulbs, some smallish, some medium, none large. A gardner friend of mine was given some multiplying onions from a man who said plant them in October, harvest them in August. I did a search and found there isn't one critter alone known as a multiplying onion. I would like to have onions in varying stages throughout the year...we eat alot of onions and I have very little storage space. We rarely have hard freezes and the ones we have last only a day or two usually.

Any help would be appreciated.
