Hi
Our local shop is selling off this years onion sets with 75% off original price.
If I bought some would they be ok for next year and if so how do I store them?

Thanks

Glenn

ANSWER:

Hi Glenn,
The onion sets will be fine for next year if you store them properly. They should be stored in a cool, dark, dry location.

A low-humidity compartment in your refrigerator will be a good place. If the sets are exposed to light, moisture, or high-humidity, they may sprout before you are ready to plant them.
