@from_the_garden: What variety of onion should YOU grow in your area?!?! Let's find out! In the south we grow short day onions, but the entire reason we do this is you guessed it, because of the HEAT! Onions are triggered by daylength and we need them to be triggered early before that summer heat makes them bolt and go to seed instead of making juicy bulbs for us to eat! #texasgarden #fallgarden #gardentips #onions
