Karen,
How long have your onions been growing? My short-day sampler from Dixondale grew for a full 6 months from the day I set out the plants. My onions ranged in size from a tennis ball to a navel orange...

If you just planted them in June, they haven't even begun to grow! If you planted onion plants, then feed them, and keep growing for about 5 more months. Farmerdill says they actually do better growing over a cold season...

These were white onions at 4 months.
