Growing Onions

 

We planted our onions in May. We used small onions called sets and left 12 centimetres between each onion.

In the beginning some magpies or pigeons pulled up our onion sets.This is a picture of our onions in June. We had a very successful crop as every single onion grew.

When we returned to school on the 1st of September our onions were ready to harvest.

Our Onion Harvest

We picked them all in a few minutes and then we brought them inside to dry. We will use them next month when we hope to cook some of our vegetables.
