Stuttgarter Onions

Man has it been wet.  The monsoons hardly pause for sufficient time to get the harvest in.

Last weekend I got the onions out of the ground and in the shed to cure. 

They'll remain here on the tarp to dry-out for several weeks after which I'll knock the dirt off of them and put them into cold storage for the duration.  In 40 degree darkness they'll keep for up to a year.

Worrisome to me was that some of the onions I pulled up had evidence of rot beginning at their root end.  I left those in the garden to compost but it is bad news for the onions in general.  Too much rain.

I'm fretting over the potatoes which haven't been harvested just yet.
