Are home grown onions stronger in flavor and crying potency??
Mine are.
I add some Epsom salts to the soil to increase the sulphur uptake, because I like really strong onions.
I have mine divided into nets, approximately 18-20 onions per net, with the intent that one net equals one month's onions, as I don't want them in the warm house longer, and we don't have a garage to store them.
This year, I grew turbo, santero and red baron.

No, they can't really see them. I told a few of them to go in the backyard and get a few.
That's really sweet:) Sounds like you had a great harvest! Looking at your red pepper makes me hungry:)
