No more testing, it's the real deal seeding start today. First up, one of the two #onion varieties we'll have this year — Rossa di Milano. From Johnny's Seeds: (1/3)

"An onion so lovely, it's a shame to eat it. Bulbs are large to colossal in size and exhibit the true grano shape with distinctly flattened tops. Suited for long storage (6+ months) with thin necks that easily dry down. Strong, bronze-pink skins and great uniformity (2/3)

The #indoorgreenhouse has been built and testing is underway. A grow tent and ventilation from @Marshydro, heat mats and lots of grow lights will hopefully allow me to start over 1000 seedling transplants 🌱 🍅 🌱 🌶️
