Lastly, the Stuttgarter Onion, is a long-day, early-season variety with a flattened, globe shape and stands out for its high-yield and superior balanced, mild taste.

Onions are one of the most popular vegetables in the home garden. They are easy to grow and perform best in well-drained, slightly acidic, fertile soil in full sun. Dry bulbs will be ready for harvest when tops have dried and fallen over naturally.

How to Grow Onions

Planting Onions

The onion belongs to the family of the garlic and shallot.
These bulbs can be grown in almost any soil as long as it is well-drained and fertile.
Plant them with the pointy end up about 3 cm (1 in) deep and 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 in) apart.
Water thoroughly after planting.

Growing Onions

Weed regularly when plants start growing.
Water as needed during active growth periods, but allow the soil to become dry between watering.
All-purpose garden fertilizer applied at the beginning and middle of the growing season is effective.
Attention! When flowers appear, cut them! Otherwise the plant will divert energy from building up the bulb.

Onions Care

When the leaves turn yellow and die, remove the bulbs from the ground.
To harvest, carefully lift the bulbs with a spade or a garden fork. Carefully brush off the soil and dry the plants for 2 to 3 weeks in a shaded area with good air circulation.
Once the bulbs are dry, you can store them. Remove any dirt and trim off any roots or leaves.

Winterizing Onions

Bulbs should be stored in a cool 5 °C (40 °F), dark and dry place.
During the winter months you should check your stored bulbs regularly and promptly use any that show signs of sprouting.
