ONION – Ailsa Craig
(100 seeds)
$4.20
Absolutely enormous yet super-tasty onions
Growing giant veg can become a hobby in itself. Amaze your family and friends with the hugest onion variety of them all. Ailsa Craig onions are so enormous that you may be accused of a little cheating - maybe some genetic meddling - but it's an old-fashioned heirloom that's as natural as the earth you plant it in. There's nothing wrong with the flavour either - but it doesn't store very well, so it is best eaten fresh. Plant and be astounded.

How to Sow
Onions can be sown direct or in trays. Ensure that they will grow in well-drained soil. Seed should not dry out during germination, but avoid over-frequent watering.
How to Harvest
Harvest your onion bulbs during dormancy. When the leaves become yellow, stop watering. You can dig or pull them up once the soil dries.
