Organic New York Early Onion

When to sow: Late winter (~early March)
Seed Depth: 1/4 inch Days to Germination: 5 at 75°F; 12 at 60°F
Sowing and seedling care: Broadcast in flats 1/4 inch apart. Heat mats help hasten germination. Water evenly & clip tops once 5” tall (enjoy like chives). Good light is essential: Younger, less stressed seedlings are healthier and more abundant than older, more stressed seedlings. Onions are hungry! There is a direct relationship between the quantity & quality of nutrients available and the quality and quantity of onions you’ll harvest. We foliar feed with dilute fish & kelp emulsion every 2 to 3 weeks until the summer solstice, when onions begin to transition to dormancy.
When to transplant: Mid-spring. mulch reduces weed & watering pressure.

Harvest: Harvest as tops soften & fall over; cure in dry place with fans 2 weeks in direct/indirect sun. Store as close to freezing as possible with 70% humidity.
