I'm not really sure of the 'correct' way, but I pull them when they are almost popping out of the ground and look good enough to use. Not very scientific, I know.
These onions had more growing to do, accidentally bought giant sets! But it was getting tight in my raised bed.
I let them go until the tops fall over, then pull them. If you were out of space then pulling them was the right thing to do.
Thanks!!!
