| Like other reviewers, I found this variety to produce large mild onions. The flavor was extremely mild, enough so that it seemed completely flavorless when cooked. We ended up throwing almost all of them away after several attempts to figure out how to use them. They would make a good display onion for fall. |

| Ailsa Craig planted from transplants started in mid-Feb. Planted out in mid-May. Harvest in very late July to mid-late August here in CT. Many over 1lb. Very sweet and mild. No tears! 2009 was a great year for onions, lots of rain!
Have a few soft ones as sun drying has been a problem this summer. Recommend you start with large transplants with all your onions, especially if in a cooler climate. Start in Jan. if you have to and clip the tops if necessary.

| This is by far the best onion I have ever planted. Produce large sweet bulbs here in the north country. It was dificult finding a dependable sweet onion and I tried many before discovering Ailsa Craig. Liturature says its not a good keeper but mine always last into January (may keep longer but are gone by this time). If you like great tasting, mild onions this onion is for you |

| Mammoth onions! Mild tasting onions reminding me of Walla Walla. Fairly good keeper. |

| Very reliable producer of good sized crop when started from plants. Excellent history of winter storage. Always some left from late August harvest until green onions are first harvested the next spring when stored in an unheated attached garage. |
