Harvesting onions and hilling potatoes

6 kg of yellow granex onions.

4.5 kg white granex onions.

Briar smiles over the bounty. The Chef is going to chop and dehydrate the stems/leaves for green onions. About 1.6 kg of green onion from both varieties.

Put the last tub of city compost on the potatoes to “hill” them so they put out more roots. All the bags are fully opened up now.

Zucchini begins.

Beautiful onions. Did you just plant potatoes in bags?

  Yes, read you could hill them easier by rolling up the bags and gradually adding soil as you go.
