Protected Onions Vs Unprotected Onions

This is a follow-up to a #shorts video I made a few days ago showing how well the protected onions are doing towards the end of a North East Winter.
It is now early March.
The onions in the early part of the video which are unprotected were planted in early November and have all sprouted but have been open to the elements and have taken quite a battering.
Compare that to the protected onions in the latter part of the video - they were planted in early December so should have been a month behind the unprotected onions.
However.....the protected onions have clearly done much better through the Winter and are much more advanced. Therefore they will most likely mature faster and provide me with crops before the unprotected onions.
If we had the space I'd grow even more onions - we currently have over 350 planted but considering we use 2-3 onions per day I need to clear some more land specifically for onions. Ideally I could do with half an acre of onions....
The less we buy from supermarkets the healthier we are since here I use no pesticides or herbicides - the vegetable garden here is all organic.
Call me a tin foil hat wearing hippy but I think it's quite important to grow our own food considering that the clowns behind the covaids nonsense are planning to make GMO vegetables containing their MNRA vaxxines and other poisons.
At that point I transform into a pure carnivore and ignore store-bought vegetables all together, lol
Having a fully functional vegetable garden and hens is great since it is so easy to look after and maintain - it's the infrastructure and skills that take the time and cost the effort but it is time and money well spent.
Invest in yourself (and the land) and you won't be poor - skills are the new currency so I want everyone to be skills rich. Learn what you can, when you can.
Check out the other videos on my channel as I cover all sorts of self-sufficiency topics including gardening, bushcraft, fishing, off-grid etc. etc.
