    Hi Nic, How are you? My I’ve shaved the heads of my Bunching Onion as the tips were very frail (I don’t know if I’m supposed to do that). They’re growing like grass – but I don’t know when I’m supposed to transplant them, and how much distance should I leave between each sprig and another?!

    I’ve got exactly the same thing happening with mine – I wasn’t sure if that was normal, but since yours are doing the same thing, I feel a bit better now! This is my first time at growing bunching onions as well, so I am following the packet instructions and hoping for the best. My packet instructions say to plant out ‘modules’ when approx. 2 inches tall and put a module (which is about 4-5 baby plants) every 4 inches or so….I’m going to give that spacing a try – keep me updated on how you go!

    Hi Nic!
    Mine didn’t come with instructions! so i’ll follow what it said with yours – i’ll do it tomorrow (they’re about 2 inches – but they stopped growing any longer). I hope i won’t cut through the roots like i did with my zuchinnies! (i planted another batch now, they sprout very quickly!)
