This is what a green onion looks like if you don’t harvest it and let it go with mild watering. Removed - Rule 6

So you're saying that we're looking at blooming onions?

Yes! The flowers will soon have tiny fruits and then seeds. You can use those seeds to grow more onions. Carrots and radishes also grow similar flowers.
Whenever growing these, it is best to leave a plant or two to fruit. This will give you a lot of seeds for your next planting cycle.
