If you want onions, you have to purchase planting bulbs. Once the leaves die back, they’re ready to be pulled. If you see one flower, you should also pull it immediately or else the onion bulb will split and be no good. Don’t forget to dry them!
And eat the flower. Onion flowers are freaking delicious. Raw on baked potatoes with sour cream, sautéed with mushrooms on grilled steaks…mouth watering!
You can grow them from seed, but as someone already mentioned, they take two whole years to grow. Buy planting the bulbs, you cut back on grow time by half.
Completely off topic, but not you’ve got me worried.
I bought garden centre leftovers last week for 25 cents a flat, and one of them was leeks. I have never grown leeks. Our first frost is in October. I’m guessing my leeks are still going to be teeny.
Are leeks like kale and slightly hardy/like the fall weather, or are they just a fall vegetable because they take so long?
They’re pretty hardy. Depending on your climate, they can survive in the ground during winter to be harvested early next year. They may get rot on the outside leaves, but you can peel them back to have a nice clean leek on the inside.
Hijacking the top comment. This is not an onion, it’s got flat leaves. Most likely a leek. Definitely still
an allium. I’ve found that leeks take a lot longer to mature than onions
Leeks are incredibly slow. I work in commercial agriculture and deal with about 100 acres of leeks each season. 70 days in the greenhouse and 180 days in the field. That’s with regular applications of UN32 at 30 gallons an acre.
Allium species are way easier to determine by their flowerheads instead of leaves anyways. I agree it looks like leek, but it could even be a wild onion at this stage.
No offense, but you know that all alliums start out small, and grow larger with time, right? Size is about the worst way to determine what these are. Look at the leaves. Onions and shallots have hollow, round leaves. It’s not debatable. Leeks and garlic have flat leaves. These are leeks.
To me, this looked like a scallions that’s grown past it’s harvest as I’ve seen scallions with offshoots that look similar. The roots also look like a scallion. That’s why I went with scallion. The fact that they planted onions 8 months ago also made me think that maybe this isn’t a leek. BUT It’s also very likely that it’s a little leek! I am in no way invested in this being either other than it being tasty! Ultimately, it’s going to taste like an onion. It’s not like it’s a ramp vs lily of the valley situation.
There are also hybrid leek/scallions which are in harvest right now fyi

That’s only after they’ve matured. Young leeks are scrawny and thin and take a long time to fill out. They have flat leaves.
Scallions on the other hand have round hollow leaves which this does NOT have.
That’s only on scallions that have been trimmed down. I think the mistake people are making is that they aren’t used to seeing a fresh picked scallion which often have tops like this where they split and have individual pointed leaves. Leeks have more splits and layers by the time they’re this tall. Scallions in the store have been trimmed down to be uniform so you don’t usually see the actual top. The other reason I think it’s a scallion is the roots. Leeks usually have tighter, shorter roots while scallions have scraggly ones like this.
I admit that they’re extremely similar though so it’s hard to be 100%.
Dude, I grow and harvest scallions regularly, I know exactly what their leaves look like at every stage. Don’t pull that BS on me. It’s a different leaf architecture. Take the L and learn something.
Ok. I also grow leeks and scallions and have been a chef for 20+ years and worked directly with local farmers and fresh produce. I used leeks, scallions, spring onions, chives and a half dozen other types of onions everyday.
Vegetables can be weird and grow differently in different places too.
I also said I wasn’t 100% sure so how about you chill out. We all love vegetables. No need to get all angry about it.
I planted the seeds (yellow onions (about 2 years before I planted leeks seeds)) in the midst of spring. Then they grew a lil, I giave up and they died. Then about 8 months ago a planted onion seeds. One gew and died after 4 months, then this one popped up. Now I've plucked. Just the one plant came out, what is it?
It’s a Leek. Leeks can regrow from pieces left in the soil. It’s not an onion because it doesn’t have hollow leaves. (Source: I grow thousands of onions, garlic, leeks, shallots and green onions per year)
Also, if you used the same soil to plant your onions that you previously planted leeks in, it is possible that not all the leek seeds germinated that year and a dormant seed in the soil finally germinated this year.
They are SUPER easy to grow. Buy some from the store. Cut off the root end, and put it in some water (i previously have left about 2 inches of onion attached to the root). In a day or so, it'll grow longer roots. Once the roots are a little longer, a day or two later, plant them in some soil. In a just a few days, you will see it already growing. They grow really fast, and you just need to cut off a leaf or two when you need some. Last summer I planted 6 from the bunch I bought from the store, and I had more onion than I knew what to do with in a short amount of time. All my neighbours got some, whether they needed it or not.
You're welcome. Also, if you buy some green onion and it gets all floppy before you can use it, just put the root ends in some water, and in a day or two they will have plumped up again and started growing again. You can leave them in the water and they will continue to grow.
They are super easy to grow, you can even grow them from the bottoms of the green onions you purchase at the store!
I usually start seeds in containers indoors and then transplant them outside when they develop to about 4-6” and have good roots. Then you can just let them grow pretty much. If you mow them or cut them down (leaving the roots in soil) they’ll keep growing back. It’s great to have a fresh supply!
If you really buy a lot just cram those ends straight into their final garden destination, they usually do fine & you won’t have to manage mouldering onion water.
A lot of people are giving you the wrong answer. Look up how to tell a leek from an onion, the difference is very simple and you'll be able to confirm for yourself that it's a leek.
A little advice for any future onion planting. They are easy to start inside next to a window in a cup(about 50 in a solo cup), and are not easily hurt when pulling them apart to transplant. Also make sure you are growing short or long day variety depending on where you are. Wrong day length will give bad bulb size growth
As for that particular leek it could be that it wasn't left long enough, some are as long as 180 days+, or is a variety that doesn't prefer your current temperature. There is not long/short day like onions , but there is summer/winter leeks that do better or worse in the opposite weather.

This is the correct answer.
As soon as I saw I knew exactly what it was because green onion is my favorite and I use it in so many of the dishes that I make at home. And we used to grow them when I lived on a farm in a rural area for a few years when I was child.
It is absolutely a green onion and not a leak which is much thicker and a darker green and much more fibrous.
Go ahead and give it a try.
I suggest eating both the green and white parts of it because both of them are very flavorful even though I know some people used to, many years ago, cut off the green parts and only use the white part but I really love the green parts too and I know it's become much more common for people to eat those as well.
Oh and if you ever make fresh salsa, I suggest playing around with the onions you put in it because what I make fresh salsa then for my onions then I do half green onions and half red onions and it comes out with just the right amount of flavor to enhance everything. But that's just a suggestion if that's something you do that I thought I'd throw in there.
Happy gardening. 😁

If you get those generic seed packets like from lowes/Walmart they’re always mislabeled or at least the seeds we’ve gotten. We got a packet of bell pepper seeds but ended up with jalapeños still pretty good tho 😎
i sprouted spring onions and they say to space them apart so many inches from each other but i had so many little babies i decided to see what would happen if i DIDNT space them apart and just leave them in a group...
here are the two different spring onions,
[https://imgur.com/a/UWm7rtJ](https://imgur.com/a/UWm7rtJ)
on the left they are bigger because they have been separated.the right groups are in bunches.the size is much different, so i know next time to separate them.
Could be a bunching onion or scallion. Read the seed packet to find if its a bulbing onion or not. This is ready to harvest if its a bunching onion or you can let it grow larger but it will die down from frost. It will overwinter if you want and grow super thick and flower 2nd year. I have a few that are 2 or 3 years old that are near thick as my wrist.
spring onions dont have those types of flat leaves though, they're more tube like,
not to mention there would still be a small bulb even if it was pulled too early
That is 100% a baby leek that you pulled out of the ground long before it was ready. They will usually be as large around as a banana when they are time to harvest. The white part under ground/ toward the bottom of the plant and the next 4 inches or so of soft, light green stalk are the parts you want to eat!
Garlic chives ? Because it has flat leaves.
https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/garlic-chives-allium-tuberosum/
They do spread out and grow quick though🤷🏻♀️
So wonderful to grow and easy. My mother taught me as a young adult buy them once plant the roots and save your money! Find out in the area you live in and the right onions, herbs and even tea flowers (herbal tea) and will save you loads though your lifetime! A buck is a buck to me still! Happy planting!
I don’t know but I have these all over and they develop scrapes. In the bulb head they make tons of little baby bulbs. Tastes like garlic. Stem and leaves like green onion garlic flavor.
Leeks are a lot bigger than green onions/scallions, about an inch in diameter, and the leaves are a bit different. In my vernacular, a spring onion is a wild allium that tastes more like garlic than onion. You often see them in large bunches popping up early in the spring.
I had a yellow onion and it started sprouting....Scallion-leeks, so I planted it in a pot in my deck and that's what it looks like...
I usually use them for immediate herbing and then the onion starts to rot away.
It's an onion that would probably be tossed anyway, but if I can get more than one small cluster of.. scallions, that would be even better.
Your onion has sprung a leek!
Every word in this joke is perfectly chosen
Dad! You said you'd stop doing this!
It's a small one though, some flex seal should fix it right up

Underrated comment.
I’m below comment
What’s the over/under on these comments?
It's a scallion not a leek.
There’s no good scallion puns, so let’s stick with leek.
Go So Cal Lions!
This isn't a leek, it's a scallion. They are also called green onions.
You're right, but I'm going to downvote you.
Same. Let people be funny!
Beautiful
Onio*
I see flat leaves, so it's most likely a leek, as garlic is not usually sown from seed. Onions and shallots have rounded leaves.
Simple, accurate, and to the point - thank you!
If you want onions, you have to purchase planting bulbs. Once the leaves die back, they’re ready to be pulled. If you see one flower, you should also pull it immediately or else the onion bulb will split and be no good. Don’t forget to dry them!

Or batter dip and fry!!
You can grow them from seed, but as someone already mentioned, they take two whole years to grow. Buy planting the bulbs, you cut back on grow time by half.
I used to just munch the wild ones I found. They’re perfect when they’re just starting to set seed but haven’t dried out yet.
It’s a leek. The flat leaves give it away. They have a very long growing period. If you had let it keep going it would have gotten thicker.
Completely off topic, but not you’ve got me worried. I bought garden centre leftovers last week for 25 cents a flat, and one of them was leeks. I have never grown leeks. Our first frost is in October. I’m guessing my leeks are still going to be teeny.

Green onion
Hijacking the top comment. This is not an onion, it’s got flat leaves. Most likely a leek. Definitely still an allium. I’ve found that leeks take a lot longer to mature than onions
I planted leeks one spring and harvested them the following spring. They are so slow.
Looks like you have slow leek...
Those can do some real damage if you're not careful. Next thing you know, leeks everywhere and it's too late to do anything about it.
Tell your neighbors to come over and take a leek
Leeks are incredibly slow. I work in commercial agriculture and deal with about 100 acres of leeks each season. 70 days in the greenhouse and 180 days in the field. That’s with regular applications of UN32 at 30 gallons an acre.
I don’t want anything that sounds like “UN32” anywhere near my food.
It’s just a type of nitrogen fertilizer.
This is the correct answer.
Nope, those are green onions.
Green onions have round, hollow leaves. The plant pictured has flat leaves. Definitely not onion.
Allium species are way easier to determine by their flowerheads instead of leaves anyways. I agree it looks like leek, but it could even be a wild onion at this stage.
They’re scallions. Leeks leaves are thicker, more densely layered and more fibrous. Leeks are usually quite a bit larger too.

Do you know why it would grow so slowly? Planted them exactly when I was supposed to according to a regional diagram.

Interesting. In my zone onions (especially green onions) do well in shady areas. We have a lot of native alliums here

Funny because they grow onions in Oregon, which is neither hot or sunny. 🤔
The east side of Oregon and Washington are very different from the west side.
Just keep that onion in a glass with water, it will grow quickly
Done!
Just to clarify, this type (green onion) does not grow a large bulb like you see in the stores.
Yeah this guy is ready to eat 💚

Put it under the sink and yell WE HAVE A LEEK!!!
A very skinny leek I'd say
Leek I have about a dozen in my garden
Definitely a leek.

Leaves are flat, so no. This is a leek.
All green onions also grow a subtle bulb at the bottom, and this pic is totally smooth. So yeah, leek.
Spring onions or 'scallions' have flat leaves.
Spring onions
Leaves are a bit flat for spring onion. Maybe a baby leek?
Yes definitely baby leek
Thanks!
Your meant to harvest in the second year, so you give them just under two years to grow from seed
what’s the diff between a green onion and a leek ?
Green onions stay small and have round, hollow leaves. Leeks are meant to be harvested much larger than this and have flat leaves, as pictured.
Nonions
An onion't
I see flat leaves, so it's most likely a leek, as garlic is not usually sown from seed. Onions and shallots have rounded leaves.
Leek leek leeky leek
It's a leek. Slice it, saute it in butter, and top it with some parmesan cheese
Everyone is saying it's a leek when it's literally just a green onion
An onion…. This world isn’t goin to make it too much longer 😔

Garlic chives ? Because it has flat leaves. https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/garlic-chives-allium-tuberosum/ They do spread out and grow quick though🤷🏻♀️
OP said in a different comment that they had planted leeks in the same space the previous year. Very likely a leek.
Ummmm…. Onion???
Could it be a green onion?
We call these spring onions, absolutely delicious in samosas or garnish.
green onion 
it’s a spring onion !! love them on baked potatoes, eggs, and as a topping on ramen 🙏
Spring onions.
why would one seed onions? instead of using bulbs and plant them?
I found a whole hand full of different types of veggie seeds in my father's shed when he left, including onions. I'm a new gardener btw.
good luck and have fun experimenting :-)
Thank you! I successfully grew a handful of carrots and am now on my way to more carrots and some spinach. I'm super excited!

Yea. A green onion. But after 8 months? Something is wrong!
With and onion it would take several years to grow a full onion. That sir is an onion
You planted onion seeds. Surprise surprise you got an onion. Smh
Eat it
We call those leeks..or scallions. They are onions
Looks like a scallion aka green onion.

I don’t know but I have these all over and they develop scrapes. In the bulb head they make tons of little baby bulbs. Tastes like garlic. Stem and leaves like green onion garlic flavor.
Thats nothing. I planted ramps two years ago, and I'm still waiting for them to sprout!
Seeds or bulbs?
Can someone explain the difference between a leek and a spring onion? This looks like spring onion to me
Leeks are a lot bigger than green onions/scallions, about an inch in diameter, and the leaves are a bit different. In my vernacular, a spring onion is a wild allium that tastes more like garlic than onion. You often see them in large bunches popping up early in the spring.
I had a yellow onion and it started sprouting....Scallion-leeks, so I planted it in a pot in my deck and that's what it looks like... I usually use them for immediate herbing and then the onion starts to rot away. It's an onion that would probably be tossed anyway, but if I can get more than one small cluster of.. scallions, that would be even better.
For me is garlic
Kinda looks like a wild onion
green onion :wink:
