Looking really good John, I have a slight problem with my pips, out of 10 pips growing well, 6 are going to seed already, any idea why this should happen?
I have had this problem in the past with pips.. I think they are very sensitive and the slightest check can send them to seed. I hope the others are ok for you.
Hello Stu, watering is a fine are and can be the difference between success and failure . Every greenhouse is different . Depends on temperature , weather conditions and type of compost used, also size of pot your in. Only a week ago we had dull cool weather and I only watered once in the week. This week the weather has been sunny and hot. I have had to water every day. Check your pots for weight and feel, you will soon know when to give water. Also remember your plants also need oxygen between watering.
A great vowel John I will be in touch for onion plants when ready
As always a great video cheers John
Interesting nice to see cheers john

Hi John, how much should you water the onions and leeks each week, when do you know to plant them into bigger pots ?

@gardeningwithjohnsoulsby1131 thanks John, I'm not sure I water enough !
@@stubaker6952 your pots should be heavy when you water, when they are light to handle you need to water again
