Pricked out Onion 'Exhibition' and Onion 'The Kelsae' seedlings

Today I filled up 37 x 2 inch pots in order to start to start potting up some of my Onion seedlings. I pricked out the following:

- 20 x Onion 'Exhibition' seedlings into 2 inch pots filled with John Innes No.1 seed compost
- 17 x Onion 'The Kelsae' seedlings into 2 inch pots filled with John Innes No.1 seed compost

Due to work this afternoon and this evening I ran out of time to do the rest of the onion seedlings so will do these tomorrow.

I put the half seed trays of both Onion 'Exhibition' and Onion 'The Kelsae' back into the other heated propagator as further seedlings appear to be showing. The Shallot 'Jermor' sets now appear to be starting to sprout. The Garlic 'Lautrec Wight' and Garlic 'Early Purple Wight' cloves are also sprouting quite nicely over the other side of the Greenhouse.

I know need to make some hoops up to keep the onion's in an upright position.
