I buy shallots at the asin market for 1.79 per pound bulk. i take them home,divide them,and plant in the garden about the 1st of march.(sept. would be better)I harvest them in the middle of july.The multiply about 5 times while growing. Thus the harvest yields 5 lbs. This makes the first generation 36 cents per pound.the next generation would be 5 cents per pound.

Cool! Makes me wish I had a garden. Homegrown stuff always seem to taste better.
That is great! Congratulations, and now is 2008, the third generation may cost less than 5 cents per pound.
What is the current price on shallots per pound now a days?
