| I can't find this in Mel's book or online. Does anyone have experience with this?
Since shallots are multiplier onions, I was thinking 2 per square foot, at an angle. Anyone? Thanks ahead, Sue |

| Sue, I was hoping someone more knowledgeable than I would answer this for you. I have never grown shallots until a neighbor gave me some this year, and I put them in four to a square. From what I could find, the suggested row spacing was 6". Granny |

| I've grown them 6" apart with great results. Two per foot will leave you with rather sparse soil coverage. Have fun, shallots are addictive! |

| Excellent advice. Thank-you very much! |

| What are multiplier onions? Sry, I'm coming in late for this one! |
