Selection of Seeds:
Choosing the right onion seeds is crucial. There are many varieties available, each suitable for different climates and culinary uses. Research the best type for your area, considering whether you prefer sweet or pungent varieties.
2. Proper Sowing Time:
Onions are cool-season crops, so the best time to sow onion seeds is late winter or early spring. In warmer climates, planting can be done in the fall. Timing is crucial as it ensures that onions have enough time to mature before the weather becomes too warm.
3. Soil Preparation:
Prepare the soil by incorporating organic matter, such as compost or well-rotted manure, to improve soil fertility and drainage. Onions thrive in well-drained, loamy soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0.
4. Sowing Seeds:
Sow onion seeds thinly in rows, covering them lightly with soil. Seeds should be planted about 1/4-inch deep, and rows should be spaced 12 to 18 inches apart. Keep the soil consistently moist until seeds germinate.
