Companion Planting: Bob’s Basics
and I can also recommend his lazy gardening book: The No-Work Garden: Getting the Most Out of Your Garden for the Least Amount of Work


I’ve read both of these and really enjoy reading the no work gardening book. It inspires you to look at the chores you do all the time and then work out how to stop having to do them! Whether it’s underplanting things to stop weeds, or just working out how to do the least work for the most reward. He advocates fruit growing as being less arduous than growing vegetables.

When to plant shallots?

Wednesday, September 5th, 2012

When to plant shallots? The general advice is autumn! I’ve read it’s anytime from September to mid-March – depending I expect on where you are and what soil you have. If your soil is likely to be sodden over Christmas then leave it until later to plant.

You want to plant them in a nice fine soil bed, so dig, rake and leave to settle and then cull any sneaky weeds that pop up again! If the soil is very soggy then think about using a raised bed. Don’t plant in fresh muck but if you have some very well rotted stuff then dig some of that in a few weeks before hand.

Round here it’s useful to cover with chicken wire to stop the birds pulling them out. As you plant them so the tip is showing then you’ll find the birds think this is something edible for them and they’ll pull it out.

Shallots
Harvest them when the leaves are all folding down – usually Harvesting: June – July, or August. The bulb you plant turns into several bulbs. Many people save some of their own grown shallots for replanting. My dad told me they were very easy to grow and he was right! They’re good for cooking with or using as pickling onions.

When to plant shallots? Read the packet you bought them in – or go with your gut instinct. They do need some cold to get started growing so don’t be in too much of a rush!

Whilst you’re growing these you can add some specialised onion fertiliser, or just use normal fertiliser – a general purpose one. Some people like to buy specific ones for specific crops but a general purpose one is cheaper as you can use it on everything. Don’t forget to weed though – they need light and air around them. A dense coverage of weeds will limit their growth.

If you hoe shallots you have to be very careful not to accidentally displace the bulbs. Hand weeding is more tedious but can be safer if you’re a bit clumsy with the hoe. If you know you’d rather hoe then make sure the bulbs are well spaced so it’s easier to get in between the rows. working from one side and then at 90 degrees means you can go between rows and do straight lines of hoeing which should make life easier.

Planting shallots is hard work. You just press the bulbs in carefully. Many people suggest you work from a board when planting so that you don’t treat on the soil and create footprint shaped condensed patches of soil.
Don’t force shallots in to very hard soil. Rake to get a fine tilth first so that they go in easily. The delicate root plate under the shallot needs to go in without being scraped. Its from here that the roots grow after you’ve planted the shallot bulbs. Plant them so the tops just peep out of the soil.

Plant them about 6″ apart in rows about twice that apart. Make sure you can get in between to hoe easily so you can help keep the weeds down.

They are very easy to grow – need little fuss once you’ve put them in. If they start to produce flowers just cut them off but they dn’t do this as much as onions do!
