Are you sure that a bulb, without this manual labor of man, could pierce such a layer of hay?

Carl wrote:Several questions :
1. Do onions, garlic or shallots need light to pierce the hay?
2. If they have a space without light, can they grow enough to be able to pierce the hay layer?

Any answers, even approximate, would be greatly appreciated! due to their complexity ;-)
