Onion Red Odourless: Planted sixty seedlings in April which have been growing well but are now going to flower and bulbs have not formed. (Adelaide Hills)

I grew onions for the first time this year. Mixed success. White ones. Some formed bulbs some didn't - good health plants - probably too much N. Onions can take 6-8 mths to grow.
