How to Grow
Seed can be started indoors in a soil-less growing medium in February. The seedlings can then be transplanted outside later in spring. Seed can also be sown directly outdoors from mid April, 8-15 mm deep and 15 mm apart in rows 30 cm apart. Thin to 5 cm apart for cooking onions, and 7.5 cm apart for the sweet Spanish types. Onions do best in a sunny site with fertile, well drained soil. Bend over any flower stalks that start to grow so the plant’s energy goes into building the bulb. One packet sows approximately 6 m of row. Germination occurs in approximately 15 days.
