Plant Starts - Onion Red
4-pack
Red Carpet variety, organic seed.
Plant 6" apart.
Onions require full sun and fertile, well-drained soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0. Sandy loam soils are ideal; in heavier soils, use raised beds or raised rows to promote soil drainage. Onions are shallow rooted and grow best with at least 1" per week of rain or irrigation, especially during the bulbing phase.
When necks become soft and tops are falling over, pull and sun-cure at least 2–7 days, depending on weather. Move to a protected location to finish drying. When dry, clip off tops and roots and store in onion bags or shallow boxes at near freezing and 65–70% humidity.
