Onion Sets 2Growing Onions from seed gives you more choice when it comes to varieties but if you are tight for space and don't have the time, using Onion Sets is the way to go. Using sets is probably also the best way of producing Shallots. 

As always, GrowMad has set about finding the very best suppliers to assist with your needs. We've listed all the suppliers alphabetically on the left, with our recommendations to the right.

Here at Marshall's we always try to give our customers the best varieties of vegetables and fruit. Attention to detail carries right through every aspect of our business - from product quality, customer service to final delivery.

Shallots are now seen as an upmarket form of Onions. They are just as easy to grow as Onions but instead of one large Onion, Shallots will cluster into several offsets (therefore giving you higher yields per bulb). At Marshall's, we have one of the largest ranges of Onion and Shallot Sets around, some varieties exclusive to Marshalls. Give us a try as part of your Onion and Shallot production this season.

Onion Sets can be conveniently sown either in the Autumn or in the Spring with different varieties best suitable for planting at each time of year. For an early harvest, Autumn planted sets are planted when other vegetables in the crop rotation have vacated their plots and are then overwintered in the soil. As soon as Spring arrives they will grow rapidly and can then be harvested at any time during the early summer.
