Last year I tried growing shallots for the first time, and had so so results. I bought my starts from a regional nursery store and planted them in mid-April. I've not really worked with shallots - gardening or cooked - so I didn't know what to expect. What I got were bulbs, that when broken apart, weren't much bigger then the starts I planted. From what I can tell from the shallots I see in the grocery store they should have been 2 - 3 times bigger then what I ended up with. I'm not sure if it was because I grew starts (which I have no idea what variety they were) or if it was something else I was doing. I'm debating about starting them from seed this year, and don't know if anyone has had any luck with Red Sun, Grey Shallots, or Bonilla. Thanks in advance for your impute!
