I never harvest mine until the leaves are falling over and then I store them in a carport until the leaves are all dried up. The necks seal themselves shut and then I cut off the leaves and store the onions in baskets. Many people like to braid onions and that works well too.

However mine are much bigger bulbs that yours. My seed onions were planted in the garden in April. If you store them too green then they will rot so I would not be in a rush to store them. I cure mine for a couple of weeks outside in August.

You can always cut some up and freeze flat in Zip Loc bags for longer storage. I do this with any that are damaged or have questionable spots and would be likely to rot in storage.
