LIFT ONIONS

Once onion tops turn yellow, it’s a sign the bulbs are ripening, and when they turn brown and bend over, your crops are ready to harvest. It’s best to lift them in the morning when temperatures aren’t too hot. Dig around the plants carefully with a fork and pull them up, keeping the tops intact. Gently shake excess soil from the bulbs and leave them to dry thoroughly for two to three weeks, spread out on a clean, dry surface in an airy garage or shed.

pods should peas and, unless you’regrowing sugar snap or mange and plump. Don’t leave it too long
