How to Grow Onions in Sawdust
The natural way to get a quick harvest of fresh herbs attracts many.
You will need to take strong plastic bags or containers, small onions and sawdust.
Throw a handful of sawdust into a saucepan and pour boiling water over it, let it cool and remove excess water.
Place 2-3 handfuls of sawdust up to 3 centimeters thick in a thick plastic bag or container and lightly compact it.
Cut off the necks of the bulbs and plant them in a tight row.
Place the container with the onion in a bag, inflate it and tie it. You don't have to untie the structure until you see the young feathers.

Unlike onions, which are grown in jars of water, these greens will not rot.
Onions in sawdust do not need to be fertilized - another plus for this method of planting.
