I was very interested in the video regarding growing Japanese onions. I now live in Czech Republic where the winters are much colder than in England, -17c to -24c. I will give the onions a go and let you know if they come through unscathed. Thank you so much for the gardeners world each week there is nothing to compare with it in this country. Just a shame I cannot watch on iplayer. Linda Plastow Navrsi Czech Republic.

Typical, planted my onions as per video and watered them in, Had a visit over the weekend to look at the progress and the moles has decided to make about 15 molehills over the plot. WHY was this, was it because the soil was loosened that attracted the little blighters.....????
