Oh, my gosh, Herrick! ...Elizabeth L. Johnson said,<br />Oh, my gosh, Herrick! I almost missed these blogs because I was so busy when they came out, getting ready for going overseas. I'm so glad I looked back. Now I know why my potatoes and onions have grown so few and so small after selecting some for replanting (this past season last year). What a help this info is!Elizabeth L.

I discovered the idea while searching for info about growing potatoes from true seeds. As you already know, the internet is a great tool for sharing gardening knowledge!Dawn Gorycahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490400011514251983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13729569.post-82817401826539651032016-04-24T20:28:08.137-04:002016-04-24T20:28:08.137-04:00Dawn,

I think I'd like to give that a try. Thank you.<br /><br />P.S. I'm going to share your pull sprout post to my Whizbang Gardening Facebook page.Herrick Kimballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17116051416696885647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13729569.post-32659252868840859532016-04-24T17:39:46.801-04:002016-04-24T17:39:46.801-04:00Herrick, thank you for posting this!

Last year, I started a blog about my experiences growing potatoes: https://growtruepotatoseed.wordpress.com/<br /><br />Jim, if you are interested, I would love to trade some of my true potato seeds for some of your onion seeds this fall.Dawn Gorycahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490400011514251983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13729569.post-3172090338319816782016-04-24T03:30:37.869-04:002016-04-24T03:30:37.869-04:00Very interesting stuff!!Very interesting stuff!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14210768437726876770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13729569.post-54148222045691901812016-04-23T11:28:11.314-04:002016-04-23T11:28:11.314-04:00I grow an Egyptian walking onion, they have small ...I grow an Egyptian walking onion, they have small bulbs about the size of a shallot. I planted some late last summer that I got from a friend. They over winter well and growing great now.
