I've just got my onion sets for autumn planting and garlic which I'm intending to plant out in the next couple of weeks.
Never done these before , so:
Do these need netting to protect against birds, as do spring planted bulbs?
Do I need to cover them with fleece overwinter? Somehow, I doubt if I need to do this as they are supposed to be winter hardy.
I welcome advice from experienced growers.
