Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

• No special treatment required. Ensure seeds are fresh and viable for the best results.

Sowing:

• Direct sow seeds ¼ inch deep in well-prepared soil. Space rows 12-18 inches apart to allow room for the bulbs to grow.
• For early planting, start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost, and transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.

Germination:

• Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days when soil temperatures are between 60-75°F (15-24°C). Ensure the soil is kept consistently moist, but not overly wet, during the germination period.

Transplanting:

• Thin seedlings to 4-6 inches apart when they are 2-3 inches tall to allow proper bulb development.

Care and Maintenance:

• Water consistently but avoid waterlogging the soil. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and prevent weeds.
• Onions benefit from regular, moderate feeding with a balanced fertilizer, especially during the early growing phase.
• Keep an eye on pest activity and remove any weeds that may compete for nutrients.
