Finally Found!

Finally found what had been "Copra" in looking through Seeds n Such! We were sad we couldn't find this long keeper for a long time. Just found one last one down in the pumphouse and it's still good and firm from last fall! "Patterson" is a great, long lasting onion!

Poor germination

I planted in January and only got maybe 30-40% to germinate. This was my first time trying a hybrid onion seed and may be the last if the onions latter are not great. I heirloom onions at least have an 80% germination rate and they taste good too. I guess time will tell if the hybrids are worth the price.

Jury is out yet

This is the first year that I have started this variety from seed. Word of mouth is the are a good keeper but I couldn't say because I got the seed a month ago and planted. When I got the packet, I got bad vibes as it said 70% germination. Well actually I am not sure it was 50%. It is okay because I will get the number of plants I want but it still is disappointing. I will further my review at season's end.

Germination is poor.

First time trying this variety and I can not vouch for how they will perform, but based on seed starting, it is a poor start. The package said germination should be 70%. First, I think that is hideous, but the actual germination is much worse. I would put it at slightly less than 50% if that. I will check back at the end of the season to see If I change my rating and how they do.

Best storage onion

I have been growing these for a number of years in Rhode Island. Good sized onions - mine range from tennis ball to softball size, but I have learned onion size is more determined by how you grow them than the variety. Start indoors in mid-January, fertilize a lot until you put them out in mid-late March. I usually harvest around the 4th of July or so. Need to dry/cure them carefully, but they store a long time! Usually store for me 7-8 months. It is now early January, and I am ordering my seeds for this year, and I still have plenty in my garage. I anticipate them lasting several more months. Best storage yellow onion that I am aware of.
