I have planted a lot of second year Red Candy Apple onions and some are already showing signs of going to seed. If you are interested, I can send you some seeds when they are ready.

I'm thinking that Intermediate day onions should produce well in Kentucky.
Are you sure these Candy onions are not hybrid?I didn't check and could very well be wrong but seems to me I remember Candy onion being hybrid.No idea about the red ones.

Just checked, Candy is hybrid, guess you could still save seed and see what you get
