Over long cropping season – Alliums

[Don Foley]

Hi,

I have created a 15’x3′ raised bed using the no-dig method.
I’m planning to sow Red Baron Onion sets in this bed in April and expect to harvest these around July.
The plan is to then follow these with Leeks (Blue Solaise, sown in modules in June) planted out at the beginning of September for harvesting April ’16.
My question is: am I growing Alliums too long in the same place in one season?
I will sow Carrots/Parsnips in this bed in 2016.

Don.

Don I am not sure, they are both long-term veg, I would grow something else after onions.

Thank you Charles. I’m going to grow Peas instead of the Onions and follow them with the Leeks.
Don.
