Because the size of the bulb is directly related to how big the foliage gets, it is recommended to start the Walla Walla inside 8 to 12 weeks before last frost date. Onions prefer light well drained soil and with lots of organic matter. They should be kept evenly moist and not allowed to dry out. It is very important to keep onions weeded. Note: If the bulb pushes itself out of the ground, cover it with mulch or straw, not soil. ... additional information
