Because of this cold weather spell my onions look like they are going to bolt. I read somewhere that you can step on the stalk to prevent bolting. This would break the stalk. Will this work or just kill the onion?
 
Terry, you may have already found this but...

Unfavorable growing conditions may result in onions bolting or sending up flower stalks. If flower stalks should develop, carefully cut them from the plant immediately or bulbing will be reduced.<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>
