They say they aren't great for storage but I harvested them in August I believe and they are just now sprouting.
Great pice of info! Thanks for sharing. My Copra are continuing to hold steady in storage--they usually last for me until about March. I don't mind a smaller onion, often makes for the perfect amount when cooking. The bulk of mine vary between racquetball and tennis ball size.
