Sowing

Before starting cultivation, it's important to prepare the soil properly. Onions thrive in fertile, well-drained soil that has been enriched with compost. Sowing seeds in carefully prepared soil will ensure healthy plant growth.

Sowing Depth

Onion seeds should be sown at a depth of 1-2 cm. This depth is optimal for good germination and allows young seedlings adequate access to nutrients and moisture.

Direct Sowing Period

When should you sow onion seeds directly into the ground? The optimal sowing period is from March to April. It's important to consider weather conditions and avoid sowing in soil that's too cold, as it may delay germination.

Plant Spacing

Proper spacing is key to growing healthy and robust onions. It is recommended to plant onions with 20-30 cm between rows and 10 cm between plants in a row. This spacing ensures each onion has sufficient space to grow.

Site Conditions

Onions grow best in sunny locations with full sun exposure for most of the day. The soil should be well-drained with moderate moisture to prevent waterlogging, which could lead to bulb rot. Regular weeding is also beneficial for healthy growth.

Harvest Period

The onion harvest period falls between August and September. It's best to harvest them on a dry day when the bulbs are fully mature and their tops begin to fall over. After harvesting, allow the onions to dry for a few days to increase their storage longevity.
