Yay, Chelle !! (I told ya the garlic was easy -- if I can grow it here, you certainly can grow it there... Big Grin )

Arlene, once you kind of "get the hang" of growing onions from seed you will never go back (although I admit I still hedge my bet a little by planting some sets as well). I do trim the tops of my onion seedlings a couple of times while they're growing because they tend to get a big out of hand, and it seems to make them stronger. Maybe @Farmerdill can weigh in on that idea.

Just for a point of reference -- I start my seeds in mid February and plant out in mid May to early June.
