How to Grow Vidalia Onions

Uunfortunately you can't... that is unless you live in the special
Vidalia Georgia region.

The onions are actually your standard Yellow Granex variety that you can
buy at your local garden center. The secret to the sweet Vidalia Onions
is that they are grown in soil that can only be found in the unique
region of Vidalia Georgia. The soil has a very unique blend of nutrients
that give the onions their sweetness.

Whatever there Mr. Garden Master, but if the ohio department of
agriculture, and the USDA says these ohio grown onions are Vidalias,
I'll believe them over you, they have more experiance and education in
the field than you do.

Plus if you notice the site you listed, it's a COMMERCIAL site, they
have interest in making people think they are the only source of
Vidalias.

That would be the same as saying a Rose isn't a Rose unless it is raised
in Rose Texas (or where ever there is a town named rose).

So pardon me if I don't fall for your commercial BS
