I cut the tops on my onions the first time I planted them. I did it at least twice, if not three times, and my onions were really small. I cut the tops because I was told by the gardener who gave me the onion starts to do it. I can say without a doubt not to cut those tops unless you get a flower on them. Mine this year are doing very well and I won't be cutting the tops unless I absolutely have too.
