Not that I really want onions

Do I really care about Texas Sweet Onions? No, not really. But, there exists a patch of harsh clay adjoining the NE part of my structure (house). Well, in reality harsh clay exists throughout my yard. But a mountain is conquered one step at a time. So, one step would be to deal with this chunk on the NE that is right under the drip.

They had the Bonnie bulbs for sale - 80 of them for a dollar. Some one hundred days from now, that crisp dollar bill plus 2 hours of weeding and burying these bulbs should turun into 5-10lbs of onions. But these onions have it cut out for them - no mercy in this clay; this is a test in resilience for them. If not, its another step in cultivating that area and keeping it fungus free for the season.
