hi Pete,

in my experience onions (Allium L.) bolt because the watering is uneven (I had this
myself last year). Picking the flowers off seems to work, and the onions
are still OK, but I couldn't work out if they were small because they
had bolted, or small because of the uneven watering ..

Generally the bolted ones were smaller than the unbolted ones.

Hope this helps

Dom
