Thank You... I haven't grown shallots before and I planted them as I would onions. A little close together and then harvest every other one throughout the season. It is early enough in the season to transplant some withiut too much damage or shock.
They were Red Sun Shallots, you can indeed start from seed although unfortunately we don't stock them at the minute. Also you can't save them from one year to the next, hope this helps
my shallots were planted a little over a month ago. they came up fine, but now the tips are burnt looking and they are a little wilty and yellowing. I tried fertilizing, maybe I need more nitrogen?
