| Ready to harvest! |
My red onions are harvested and they look delicious! Feeling so proud of these purple beauties right before harvest, I had done a quick Google search to see if there was anything I needed to do other than pull these babies out of the ground. To my surprise, they grew so well, because onions are simply easy to grow! I had great success with my shallots last year so I decided to try the red onions for all my yummy Greek summer dishes. One website basically burst my gardening bubble when it said, "if you can poke a hole in the ground, then you can grow an onion." To tell you the truth, that really is all there is to it!
1. Poke a hole
2. Place the onion bulb in the hole
3. Cover with soil
4. Water and Wait
5. Pull it out when ready and let dry (do not rinse off the dirt!)

That's it folks! It doesn't get easier than that. Once the green has dried out, just use scissors to snip them off as well as the roots.
