Thanks for the kind words everyone!

JR, here ya go. This was 3 days before harvest on June 11th.
The more I look and think, these close-ups are of the German Extra Hardy. Definitely could have used another few days.
I work full time and took off Friday to harvest. it was also when I could get 10 volunteers all at the same time, so I had to do it regardless. In a perfect world, we would've harvested the Music and Romanian Red, and came back this week to do the GXH.
Maybe next year if it is a drier year, I can split up the harvest dates if need be. I think adding another week to the GXH would be fine and there would have been enough green leaves left for wrappers. There are plenty of large bulbs, but on a percentage basis, there are too many small ones for my liking.
