In this video, I show you how I grew mixed onion varieties in the one raised garden bed and then harvest them to cure in the sun.

Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂 #onion #homestead #gardening

Meow, and also which ones tasted the best?
Love all of your videos.
But please slip slop slap put on your HAT
I'm quite impressed you were able to grow good sized onions in the sub-tropics, especially with all the rain we've been having.
Just planted my Texas Granex onion starts in USA South Louisiana! Similar climate to yours but opposite hemisphere? It’s entering our winter here. We are getting 80F temps still here end of December. That’s hotter than usual.
yo what happened to ur arm bruh?
Don't leave those out in full sun, put them in the shade or you'll lose them.
Awesome video. Thank you.
Another great video Mark, I've been watching your videos for a good 6 or so years now and I gotta say I really admire everything you've accomplished and you positive attitude and outlook on life. I'm sure looking forward to seeing all the great things the future has in store for you as you deserve the best. Good luck.
Can you do a more extensive summer growing veges I have been struggling with what to grow in the hot Queensland weather
Hey Mark! Ray here, from Houston, TX. When do you usually make live streams? Also have you thought about harvesting honey, vanilla, a variety of nuts or seeds for snacks? I was eating a bowl of vanilla almond cereal at thought maybe you could show us how to make a container of cereal. Im eating "RX Cereal" 11g. protein, if you want to reference exactly what i was interested in you showing us. I would like to see you grow food and make more restaurant style dishes.
Hi.. I learned a lot of ideas in your channel . Thank you so much..
Your amazing at growing. I try to learn from your videos
Why would you weed out the clover? Isn't it good for nitrogen fixing?
Onion leaves are edible, tasty and I'm sure nutritious. Why waste them? Put them in soup.
Cheers mate!
theres a fancy invention called a hat …comes in lots of shapes and sizes
Can someone explain to me why this man is not prime minister, and why we don't grow fruit trees on every street in Australia?
I was just gifted a small blueberry bush and need some advice. It's in a small pot and I have a big pot to transplant into. Im in zone 7 so Its going to be cold for a while. Should I go ahead and transplant the blueberry bush, and put the freshly transplanted bush out through winter? Do I have any other options? Love the videos, giving me great ideas for the garden
