I now belong to the supermarket treatment school. Have had ZERO result with these. They just sit there and rot. Maybe some supplies treat and some don't. Mine came from Coles but will try Woolies. I try and avoid the "big boys" but will keep eye out at local bloke. Fingers crossed.

Graeme, are you using shallots purchased from the supermarket? Have you tried certified seed shallots from a nursery or hardware store?
