1.5 inches for seeds seems really deep to me????

I 'think' 1/4" to 1/2" deeps seems to be mostly recommended.
Perhaps this link will help--

Most articles I've found don't show that you can plant in the fall. Many even show starting indoors then transplanting in the spring.
As I said: Years ago the Italians would plant in the spring but once they found that they could plant in the fall, they got bigger onions and they could also plant in the spring to extend the season.
Since it's cooler where you are than here and have harder winters, I'd plant some right now and then some in the spring, maybe even trying the transplant thing. You've got lots of seeds to play with!Our house is as Neil left it- an Aladdin’s cave of 'stuff'.

I planted a few yesterday just for shites and giggles. I've read that depending on temperature anywhere between 4 days and 10 days--
