| Onions are no different than any other seeds when it comes to containers. ;) The Container FAQ here offers many suggestions and a picture of many and they will all work for onions too. Link below is to a previous discussion with even more suggestions unless you want to invest in more professional seed starting set-ups. Search 'container' for even more discussions and ideas. As to number of seeds - onions are usually sowed quite thickly and then thinned as needed or transplanted so you can just scatter sow the seeds all over the top of you soil in whatever size container you choose to use.
