Time to Plant Onions in NC
It’s strangely warm outside, and I thought I’d look into onion planting dates for NC. Last spring I waited until March or April and my plants bolted and never bulked up. According to the Department of Horticultural Science at NCSU, the window for Spring planting is January 15 – February 25.

me too! This year it will fall squarely on my shoulders as Jerry wants to take a break. I am moving the boxes to a new spot and probably focusing on fewer items than in the past. I am excited!

I was really surprised how early onions need to be planted. It's green onions for me this year.
