A handy tip grow in pots and containers especially if space is limited 
 
Onions need a well drained sunny area that has been well dug in autumn adding plenty of compost or well rotted manure. Thay do not grow well in acidic soil so adding lime maybe necessary.  
 
Sow every two weeks to have a continuous supply of onions. They can also be grown in window boxes or containers on the patio.
Keep well watered in dry spells.
 
Sow thinly outside 1.5cm deep in drills between March - April under a cloche between April - July in open ground.
