2013 Onion Growing Challenge

Hiya John.

A few of mine are like that, but have been from quite early on. I probably didn't quite plant them perfectly vertical. It seems to have become more pronounced as they've got bigger. Maybe it's the weight of the leaves?

 

@Freddy aren't you going to weigh it?

 

Oh no Freddy.....it was so big ....why does that happen?....it looked strong enough to be passed going wrong.....but then i don't have a clue about these things.....

It still looks like a cracking onion to me

 

I guess that might be a good idea. As I said earlier, there's another one that's not far behind, but if that fails too, I might have missed the opportunity to record my heaviest. As long as no-one objects?

 

Only trying to confuse you Freddy you weigh away my friend

 

I'm dying to know how much it weighs

 

He's going to weigh.........

 

Sorry folks, way too dark down there. It'll have to 'weight' until tomorrow

 

I'll lend you me torch Freddy

 

Dawn was ages ago!

I the meantime here's vegmandan lifting his onions earlier this month

P.S. @Freddy don't forget to also measure the girth before you chuck it out.
