Onions exposing. Should I hill them?

[wiswash]

My white onions which I wont harvest until fall are starting to push up and are showing above the soil line. Should I cover these with dirt? Many Thanks

Nope, they'll be fine. Some people feel they grow better that way anyhow. They shouldn't be too deep under the soil, at any rate.

A storm blew the green tops over on mine and I was a little concerned that the hot sun might scald them, but it didn't. They were A-OK.

I agree with Journey. Mother nature knows what she is doing. By fall, mine are darn near out of the ground!

No, no no. The onion shoulders should be visible.

OK, Thank You.
