Advice from our agronomist
Planting. Sow directly from early spring to June, 1–1.5 cm deep, rows 20 cm apart. For a continuous supply sow small batches every 2–3 weeks.
Watering and feeding. Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during germination. Feed moderately with compost; onions dislike fresh manure.
Care. Thin seedlings to about 10 cm in the row and keep the bed weed-free – young onions cannot compete. Harvest when stems are pencil-thick.
Gardener's tip. Sown in September, "Witte van Lissabon" overwinters and gives the first green onions in Estonia as early as May.
