Spring onions not sprouting

Supercell

I prepared a seed bed four weeks ago and planted Bok Choi and Spring onions.
The Bok Choi are doing great but no sign at all of the spring onions, not a sausage!!

I didnt prepare the soil at all by digging in compost but i did throw down some fish and bones stuff and some general fertiliser pellets.

I'm thinking about just digging up the soil tomorrow and mixing in some compost and planting the Calabrese that I have in some pots which are thriving ( I have another couple of raised beds I had ear marked for that later).

With all the cold weather this year should I give it another week or is four weeks time to call it a day?

I'd say try again. Most reliable way to do it is sow a few seeds in modules indors and plant them out into the ground once they germinate. The little onions wil push eachother apart as they grow.

I wouldn't get panicked just yet. They are (in my opinion and experience) slow to germinate and grow anyway. The colder than normal conditions in the past month won't have helped them either. Give them another couple of weeks at least.

But in the mean time sow some more indoors. You could wait 2 weeks and maybe have nothing. Add another week or two to wait for new seeds to germinate plus slugs and you could end up with nothing for the summer. Multi-sowing indoors in modules works very well and saves a lot of space in the ground. Always good to have backups.
