All onions grown from sets bought from Auchan hypermarket near Dunkirk are infected and will be dug out when time permits at the weekend. Strangely, 2 rows of shallots in the same bed look very healthy. Maybe the infection was in the sets. Also a row of module sown Sturon from seed next to the infected row looks ok so far.
In Sept I might just risk the wrath of our EU masters and sterilise the bed. My granny always did it and it never killed her.
