PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS: Choose a variety of Onion that is best suited to your climate. Short Day onions are for southern climates where they can grow through the cool Autumn and Winter months and bulb production will be triggered when the days get longer in the summer. Long Day onions are best for northern climates where they can enjoy the longer summer days necessary for them to form bulbs. Onions grown out of their ideal climate may never produce a use-able, or good sized bulb. For best results, onion seeds should be started indoors in flats and transplanted when seedlings are 4-6" tall. Onion seeds will germinate best in warm soil, between 68-75 degrees, with consistent moisture. Onion growers know that great onions come from well prepared soil. Onions need a sunny patch of fertile soil with good drainage. They prefer a pH of 6 to 7.5.
