We started the greenhouse today. We seeded about 100 flats of onions. At about 250 seeds per flat, that's a lot of onions. In farming, once you plant the first seed, the rest of the season sort of runs itself. Now we are committed to watering and caring for these plants until the weather is settled enough to transplant them outside. Then there is a lot of weeding and watering until time to harvest, when we pull all the onions and cure them on tables in our greenhouse until their tops are dried down. Then there is a lot of topping and cleaning and if all goes well, lots of onions to keep us through the winter.
