If the weather is icy cold you may want to start seeds off indoors just until germination. Don't be tempted to keep the seedlings too warm as they will become to string like and probably not make good strong plants. Doug Hi Jonathan,

I plant indoors in an unheated conservatory. If the weather is icy cold you may want to start seeds off indoors just until germination. Don’t be tempted to keep the seedlings too warm as they will become to string like and probably not make good strong plants.

They still tasted pretty good and reached about 2lb's. Don't forget to grow really big you can plant as early as January!

I will be making my first attempt at Kelsae next year (well actually this year if I start them in December!) and I'm also going to have a bash at silverskin pickling onions. So both ends of the scale for size. Very useful well-written information, Doug.
