Planting Multiplier or Potato Onions INDOORS

First, here's a link that people should read if they don't know what potato onions are.  It's a bit long, but it explains how the particular breed i'm trying to make came from.  This is Kelly Winterton's onions that he's been putting together.

Here's a google doc that Kelly is keeping up to date

On 12-03-2012 I planted 36 Multiplier Onion seeds, in a small seeding tray, and many of them are starting to show signs of life.

This is the post i'm using to keep track of the entire growth.  I'll show all pictures here and a log from day to day of what has done what.

Pictures (i'll keep these up to date, hopefully at least weekly)
Right now they look like normal onions :) just wait a couple of years.
Log (i'll keep this up to date):
