In regards to soil temp for onions. You suggest 8-30 degree temps are best but my app is saying plant in garden now, (Natone, Tas) We are currently getting 2-15 degrees on average and dropping with morning frosts. Will onions survive or do they need to go into the hothouse?

Hi Annie, I'm in Latrobe, and I've always planted onions out on , or around the shortest day
