Did you know that day length determines when onions start to bulb?
The variety you choose actually depends on the latitude you live in, not the amount of shade. You can search for "Onion plant day-length guide site:dixondalefarms.com" on the Internet and it will help you find which varieties you should be growing!

Short day onions are the variety that grows best in my short day Bay Area climate.
Biyt I purposely grew the wrong variety of onion for my latitude, Just to see what would happen. I fully expected the bulbs to be smaller, but there were lots of unexpected negatives, and a few surprising positives!
Hope this video helps you grow onions better!
I buy my transplants every year from @DixondaleFarms (not sponsored!)
