Onions are one of the most essential crops in the garden. Growing it is easy. And, even if the garden is small, 1-2 beds of onions are enough for personal use to provide the family with this useful product for the winter. But with one condition - in the presence of a good harvest.

The apparent simplicity of growing onions can play a bad joke with a gardener, especially a beginner. The bulb sprouts in the spring even on a windowsill in a glass of water. And in the soil in the summer - even more so. Therefore, many grow onions on the principle - planted and forgot. And then they complain of illness, crop failure and small heads. What conditions must be observed in order to get a good harvest of onions.
Growing Onion Turnips
In order for the bulbs to grow large, for planting, take a set of seeds from 1 to 2 cm in size. Bulbs must first be processed. For 3-4 days they begin to warm up at a temperature of +30
.40 ° C, then soaked for 10-12 hours in a complex fertilizer dissolved in water. Before planting, they are dipped in a bright pink solution of potassium permanganate for 10 minutes, then in clean water and begin to plant.
Onion prefers fertile, loose and light soil. In the spring, to improve the fertility of the soil in the garden where the onions will grow, it is necessary to introduce complex mineral fertilizers. To avoid onion shooting, the soil on the bed is heated to +12
15 ° C. For this, it is necessary to cover the garden bed with plastic wrap for 3-4 days. The sevka landing dates are the last decade of April and the beginning of May.
Further, the soil on the bed loosens, and grooves are made in it at a distance of 25 cm from each other. In these grooves sowing is planted. The distance between the bulbs in the furrow should be 8-10 cm. The sevka is planted to a depth of 3-4 cm.
