Onion family Marneuli

Outdoor cultivation this plant has some features. This culture is not afraid of frost and is planted in March-April.. The greens are ready to be harvested in May, and the bulb head will ripen a month later.

To get early greens, family onions must be planted in mid-October, then the plant has time to take root, but does not begin to grow. The culture will please with a harvest of greenery in April.

Although the family onion is considered a frost-resistant plant, but for the winter it is recommended to plant it in the southern territories. AT middle lane and in the Urals, with severe frosts, about half of the planted onions are lost.

In order to grow a good crop, you need to choose the right site and prepare the soil.

The culture grows well in sunlit areas.

The plant thrives in fertile, moderately moist soils. which must be prepared in advance before landing.

Family onions develop well on light, crumbly soils with a uniform structure.

If the landing will be carried out in the spring, then the soil is prepared in the fall.: the soil is cleaned of weeds, and then dug up to a depth of approximately 20-25 cm.

For each square meter contribute:

• 5 kg of humus or compost;
• 1 tsp superphosphate;
• 1 tsp urea;
• 2-3 tbsp. spoons of wood ash.

Before planting in spring for each square meter add 25 g of nitrogen fertilizer. If the planting will be carried out in the fall, then the soil is prepared in the summer.

To protect the plant from diseases, before planting the seeds, it is recommended to moisten it for half an hour in a solution of a fungicidal preparation or in a solution of potassium permanganate.

For planting take small bulbs, about 3 cm in diameter. Approximately 30 pieces are planted per square meter., approximately 10 cm apart. Plant onions in moist soil, deepening by 10 cm.

At spring planting in order to increase productivity and prevent bolting, it is recommended to cover the crops with lutrasil, which is removed after the first gatherings. Besides, it is necessary to mulch the soil using humus or peat.

If landing is carried out before winter, then planting is carried out according to the same scheme, and mulching is carried out with peat.

Caring for a plant grown in open ground is not at all difficult and consists of the following:

1. Watering.
2. Loosening.
3. Weeding the beds.
4. Top dressing.

At the beginning of growth, family onions should be watered periodically, because if the plant does not have enough moisture, it will quickly complete the growing season and the bulbs will not be able to pour enough. Stop watering about a month before harvest.. A layer of mulch will help retain moisture. For the entire season, watering is carried out at least 3 times.

The soil in the garden should not dry out.

In rainy weather watering the plant should be less frequent, and in dry weather watering should be more frequent. In cloudy weather and without precipitation, the plant should be watered approximately once a week.

Watering onions should be plentiful and carried out at least once every three days.

Family onions perfectly tolerate top dressing. What top dressing to feed the plant:

1. Bird droppings. The latter is diluted with water at the rate of 1:15.
2. Complex mineral fertilizers: 40 g is dissolved in 10 liters of water.
3. Mullein infusion. It is diluted in water in a ratio of 1:10.

It is necessary to stop fertilizing and stop feeding about a month before harvest so that the crop grows bulbs, and does not continue to produce greens.

Family onions, compared to turnips, have a refined taste and quick cooking. After its use, there is practically no smell from the mouth.

For these reasons, the plant has become a real find for gourmets.

And growing this crop is an absolutely simple task and is within the power of novice gardeners.

Growing vegetables on own site guarantees the availability of fresh and safe products.

How to plant onion sets in Siberia? Climate features require different approaches to cultivation and selection of varieties.

In the review, we will analyze the most proven and effective moments in breeding a popular spice.

Onions in Siberia

Choose a site

Growing vegetables in harsh weather conditions requires maximum attention from the gardener. One mistake will lead to the complete destruction of the crop, and even the most resistant varieties will not help. To avoid unnecessary trouble, the first step is to find a suitable place for vegetables.

Before planting onion sets in Siberia, you should know one of its characteristic features: the culture prefers well-lit areas - beds should be laid out in a sunny and ventilated sector of the garden. The plant does not tolerate acidic soils well, so they are alkalized with wood ash or lime in advance.

A place for vegetables has been prepared since autumn. Professionals dig up the territory with the subsequent introduction organic fertilizers. In the spring, before starting work, minerals are added to the soil (in grams per 1 sq. M):

• potassium sulfate - 30;
• ammonium nitrate - 20;
• superphosphate - 40.

To avoid common diseases, it is worth remembering the rules of crop rotation. Gardeners do not advise planting onions for several years in a row in one place, as well as after carrots and garlic. Recommended predecessors are:

• cabbage;
• legumes;
• zucchini.

Before starting work, be sure to remove the remains of weeds and cultivated plants. Such care will protect against problems in the future. If the vegetables were sick at the site, then we advise you to pickle the soil in the fall.

Varieties

It will not work to grow very large turnips with seeds in a harsh cold climate. Greenhouse varieties are only suitable for feather cultivation. Professionals recommend using small sets.

Onion varieties for Siberia are strong plants that quickly form beautiful heads. Breeders tried and presented a lot of interesting vegetables. The most popular types:

• Yukont;
• Siberian annual;
• Black Prince;
• Siberia.

• Sterling F1;
• Daytona F1;
• Candy F1.

Before buying, you should pay attention to the shape and size of the heads. Too large most often give a lot of arrows, so it is recommended to purchase small and medium sets.

Oblong onions will delight with round turnips, and flat varieties can boast of an ideal oval.

It is important to carefully examine the material and read the description, and not choose products solely by the photo.

Sowing preparation

The cultivation of vegetables requires the right preliminary events. When growing onion sets in Siberia, it is necessary to process the planting material. In this way, plants can be protected from common diseases.

In 5 liters of water add 2 tbsp. l. rock salt. Turnips are soaked in this liquid for 24 hours, then they are transferred to a weak solution of potassium permanganate for 15 minutes, after which they are immediately planted.

Fungal infections are the main scourge of the bow, so they use a different method. Sevok is heated in water for 10 hours at a temperature not exceeding 40 ° C, then disinfected for 15 minutes in a weak solution blue vitriol. Before sowing, the material is sprayed with growth stimulants.

If there is no desire to warm the bulbs for a long time, they can be dipped for a quarter of an hour in water at a temperature of 55 ° C, then for the same time - in the cold. In the end, you need to treat with a solution of potassium permanganate.

spring work

When to plant onion sets in Siberia? In a harsh climate, several proven schemes are used, but a friendly full-fledged harvest can only be obtained during spring work. Small seed does not give arrows, so it is most often used for growing turnips.

May is the best month for agricultural work. Terms vary depending on the warming of the soil. The ground temperature during planting should not be less than 8°C.

Seed beds are divided according to the following scheme (in centimeters):

• width - 100;
• distance between rows - 15;
• distance between turnips - 10;
• depth - 2.

Before planting in spring, the earth is moistened, loosened and cleared of weeds. For disinfection, it is advised to pour boiling water over the wells, and postpone work for a day. After the activities are completed, the place is carefully mulched.

When growing with seeds, the deepening of the grains should not exceed 2 cm, while the distance is reduced to 1.5. The work takes place at the same time. In difficult climatic conditions, it will not be possible to grow full-fledged heads in one year. All shoots are used per pen.

winter onion

When is onion planted in Siberia? Some gardeners are experimenting with frost-resistant varieties and plant vegetables in the fall. To do this, select a material whose diameter does not exceed 3 cm.

The first decade of October is the best option for work. During these periods, the possibility of late germination is excluded. The bulbs are buried deeper, not forgetting about mulching with sawdust and straw after the event.

The Siberian climate makes it difficult to grow onions in autumn. To save winter planting from early cold weather, you can cover the seed beds with a thick layer of coniferous paws.

The higher the fortification, the more securely the turnip is hidden. Such caution will protect the future crop from freezing in low-snow seasons.

Perennial varieties perfectly adapt to winter, and in the spring they delight gardeners with young greenery.

top dressing

Before the appearance of the first leaves, work on the beds is limited to watering as the soil dries. After three feathers come out in place of the seeds, you can proceed to more serious procedures. Often at this stage, inexperienced gardeners make mistakes.

Fertilization is the main element in the care onions. Depending on what is planned to be grown, certain preparations are used. Organics are used for growing on a feather, and minerals will become indispensable for obtaining large heads.

The first feeding consists of dissolved in warm water phosphate and ammonia agents. Farmers recommend using ready-made specialized mixtures that are designed specifically for this crop. The second application is carried out in a month.

Excess nutrients just as harmful as a deficiency, so you can’t regularly “feed” onions. Before the procedure, the soil is loosened, irrigated, and only then fertilizers are used. If you use chemicals on dry ground, then you can burn the delicate roots.

Care

How to water onions? In the conditions of the Siberian climate, in the first month, procedures are carried out once a week, then the moisturizing periods are increased by half. In dry summers, it is allowed to slightly add the number of events.

The intensity of moisture is most monitored in the spring. During this period, the formation of the root system and the growth of greenery. An excess of fluid will lead to decay and disease, and a lack of it will lead to starvation. A negative fluctuation will definitely affect the taste of onions.

Loosening is an important element of care. The culture does not tolerate oxygen deficiency, so it is important to plant vegetables on soils that allow air to pass through well. Regular weeding will get rid of weeds. The best way to make the job easier is to mulch the garden bed.

Diseases and pests

Ignoring the rules of care causes infections to appear. excess moisture in the soil and heat provoke the occurrence of Fusarium Donets. It infects one-year-old onions, as a result of which the stored turnips become soft and disappear.

Wet bacterial rot appears towards the end of the growing season. You can see the signs only when the head is cut. For several weeks, vegetables do not show symptoms of the disease, but then massively lose their presentation.

The rusty "mosaic" spots on the feathers are the spores of the fungus. As the infection develops, the formation of ground and underground parts stops. The pathogen overwinters in plant remains and able to withstand the most squeaky frosts. Regular destruction of weeds and straw will help to secure the beds.

At the end of May, the onion fly lays its eggs under dry seed scales or in the soil next to the crops. A week later, hungry larvae penetrate the turnip and gradually eat the vegetable. During the summer, at least 2 generations of pests come out.

To get rid of the insect, spraying with "Metaphos" is carried out. As a preventive measure, it is recommended to plant carrots nearby. The specific aroma repels the fly.

Harvest

You need to dig onions when new greens stop forming. During this period, the feathers dry and lie on the ground. A few weeks before the final procedures stop watering. This trick inhibits the accumulation of moisture, which provokes decay during storage.

The best early ripening variety for Siberia has time to fully mature and form protective scales. Before harvesting, it is recommended to dig one turnip. The presence of a thick neck and light husk indicates that the culture is not yet ready for storage.

Cleaning is carried out in dry windy weather. You need to dig carefully, trying not to damage the bulbs. Injuries and cuts negatively affect the keeping quality of products.

You can not knock heads on the surface. Whole harvested crop lay out to dry in the fresh air.

To speed up the process, the vegetables are manually turned over for 2 weeks.

Planting onion seeds in Siberia is an important and responsible procedure. Our recommendations will help you decide on the choice of an early ripening variety and teach you how to plant seeds in harsh climatic conditions.

You need to plant onions according to the 8x20 scheme. That is, in a row, the bulbs should be at a distance of 8-10 cm, and the row spacing should be 18-22 cm, depending on the size of the set and variety, this will facilitate the care of the beds and increase crop yields.

Planting depth - 4-5 cm, that is, closed sowing should be 2 cm of the ground. If you deepen the bulb, the turnip will not grow, everything will go into the arrow.

The bottom of the furrow must be loose, otherwise the roots will develop slowly, and the turnip will not have time to grow.

Planting onion seedlings will allow you to get an earlier harvest

Preparing sevka for sowing

You can prepare planting material in three ways.

1. Salt solution is prepared - 2 tablespoons of salt per 5 liters of warm water. Sevok is soaked for a day. After incubated for 15 minutes in a solution of potassium permanganate. Bulbs should be planted in the ground without drying.
2. For 10 hours, the onion is heated in water at a temperature of 40 degrees (regularly add hot water). It's important not to overdo it. After sowing, it can be treated with a growth stimulator. An obligatory stage is disinfection, which will prevent damage to the seedlings by powdery mildew. To do this, for 10 minutes it is lowered into saturated solution manganese or copper sulfate (1.5 tablespoons per 10 liters).
   Processing the seed before planting will increase the yield
3. If there is no possibility of long-term warming up of the sevka, it is dipped in water at a temperature of 55 degrees for 15 minutes, then for the same time in cold water. After disinfection with potassium permanganate.
4. This procedure is designed to stimulate the awakening of the kidneys in the bulb and to protect the future crop from diseases. Before heating and disinfection, the sevok must be dried at a temperature of 20-25 degrees for 10-20 days.
5. In addition, it is necessary to sort out the onions, selecting the defective ones. You can divide the planting material by size - smaller ones (up to 1 cm or more than 2 cm) will be used to grow green feathers, large ones (1-2 cm) - for a turnip.

Soil preparation

Onions are a light-loving crop, and therefore the garden bed must be broken up in a well-lit and ventilated place. The site has been prepared since autumn: they dig a shovel on a bayonet, fertilize it with compost.

It is important to know that the application of organic fertilizers, manure or chicken manure immediately before planting will lead to the development of the above-ground part of the bow and dormancy of the underground.

In the spring, only mineral fertilizers are applied to the garden: 15 g is needed per 1 square meter ammonium nitrate, 30 g double superphosphate, 30 g potassium sulfate. Wood ash can be used instead of potassium.

Onions do not develop well on acidic soil, therefore, in the fall it is alkalized with wood ash or lime at the rate of 0.5 liters per 1 square meter.

Soil preparation for onions with ash

Important! Stick to the shift rule. Onions are not planted in the same place for two years in a row. Can be planted after tomatoes, beans, cabbage, zucchini, cucumbers. It is possible to sow in the same place only after 3-4 years.

Care

Any onion, regardless of the variety, loves moist, but not wet, loose soil, therefore constant care is required - regular weeding to a depth of 4-5 cm and watering the planting during the period of intensive growth.

Proper cultivation is necessarily accompanied by the timely introduction of nutrients for planting.

The first time fertilizer is applied after 3-4 true leaves are formed. Liquid mineral fertilizer(on a bucket of water 25 g of nitroammophoska or the preparations described above) are brought into rows with onions.

The second top dressing can be arranged in a month. In this case, in a bucket of water, dilute 20 grams of double superphosphate and potassium salt or another complex fertilizer with phosphate and potassium.

Such dressings of seedlings stimulate resistance to neck rot.

Onions do not like excess fertilizer

An excess of fertilizer leads to the death of the onion, while a lack of fertilizer does not give the desired effect.

If humus and “mineral water” have been introduced into the future bed since autumn, then during the second top dressing, all nitrogen fertilizers should be excluded.

Watering

Onion care includes competent watering. Onions require different amounts of moisture during periods of growth and ripening. In the spring, during the first month after planting, soil moisture must be monitored especially carefully.

At this time, shoots appear, leaves develop intensively and root system. Watering is required frequent, but moderate. After the formation of the bulbs (one month before harvesting), water access must be stopped, since excess moisture will slow down the development of the turnip and worsen the keeping quality.

In principle, the main care ends there.

Watering saline solution save onions from diseases

If arrows appear, the bulb is pulled out entirely, or the feather is cut off at the base when a seal appears on the tip.

If you do this earlier, the arrow is formed again. If you are a little late, the bulb will begin to rot.

Diseases

If you properly prepare the sets, there is a chance to reduce the risk of damage to the crop. However, in the event of the appearance of diseases, the ridge is sprayed with Bordeaux solution at intervals of 12-15 days. Onions can be consumed 7 days after the last spraying.

Onion fly can be fought with 100 table salt for 10 l species. Rows are shed with a solution only when the plants reach a height of 7-10 cm. Repeat the procedure after 4 days.

Onion annual grade Siberian

To prevent some diseases, it is recommended to plant onions with other crops - for example, alternate rows with carrots or beets.

Harvest

Onion cultivation is completed when the growth of new feathers has already stopped, and the old leaves begin to dry out and spread along the ground.

Harvesting takes place in dry weather. The bulbs are kept in the sun, and after 2 weeks they are dried in a ventilated attic.

Onions with a thin dry neck are suitable for storage.

Onions are harvested. when the pen falls

The best bulbs grow from the set from which the feather was not cut in the summer. Therefore, it is recommended to break another bed for greenery.

Growing healthy and large onions is not an easy task, but it pays off.

Features of planting a family bow

Planting a family onion in the spring enables gardeners to get a rich harvest. Onion (from the Latin Állium) belongs to the genus of biennial and perennial herbaceous plants from the subfamily Onion, or Alliaceae, and the family Amaryllis, or Amaryllidaceae. Planting a family onion in the spring enables gardeners to get a rich harvest of a very tasty and valuable green crop.

Onion "family" (Alliumascalonicum) - vernacular name shallots, or Ashkelon onions.

Young leaves are eaten, which should be cut several times during the growing season. Also edible are small onions with a peculiar taste.

Currently, several varieties of this perennial herbaceous plant are known.

Shallot belongs to the genus of biennial and perennial herbaceous plants from the Onion subfamily.

The best varieties family onions are not only unpretentious, but also able to form a high yield.

"Ural purple"	Middle Late	up to 164 q/ha	Flattened in shape, with a reddish-purple surface and a semi-sharp taste	4-7 pieces

Pre-planting treatment

To obtain a full-fledged and high-quality crop that is subject to long-term storage, it is necessary to carefully examine the bulbs suitable for planting before planting.

It is required to reject seed material that has traces of damage by diseases or pests. Bulbs that have pronounced mechanical damage are also unsuitable for planting.

The seed bulbs selected for planting should be disinfected with special fungicidal preparations or soaked for several minutes in a weak pink solution of potassium permanganate.

Where and how to plant

Shallots can be planted and grown by sowing seeds, but bulbs are most often used in home gardening.

Planting dates vary depending on the soil and climatic conditions in the region of cultivation.

Landing is allowed both in spring and in autumn, each of them has its own characteristics:

• spring planting more preferable, due to the high level of photophilous. In conditions of long daylight hours, as a rule, the most complete bulbs are formed with the possibility of long-term storage. In addition, in the spring, a sufficient amount of moisture is retained in the soil, which is necessary for successful growth and development garden culture. To obtain a marketable bulb, it is recommended to plant in late April-early May. In order to obtain a large amount of greenery, planting is recommended starting from mid-May;
• autumn planting before winter involves the implementation of activities from the second decade of the first autumn month. For this purpose, it is necessary to select a site characterized by the presence of sufficient snow cover in winter. Such a planting is especially relevant when it is impossible to preserve the planting material until spring. In addition, to the merits autumn planting earlier harvesting of both bulbs and greens can be attributed.

The timing of planting shallots varies depending on the soil and climatic conditions in the region of cultivation.

When choosing the timing of planting, you should evaluate all the pros and cons, in addition, you need to take into account the fertility of the soil and choose the right area, which should have good illumination and no moisture stagnation.

It is necessary to plant bulbs at a distance of at least 10-12 cm, with sufficient depth, leaving a distance of 20-25 cm between rows. The standard planting depth of shallots in the spring is approximately 5-8 cm.

At winter planting you need to deepen the bulb by 8-10 cm, counting from the bottom. Ridges with onion plantings should preferably be mulched with peat.

It is necessary to plant bulbs at a distance of at least 10-12 cm

Benefits of Growing

The main advantages of the family bow are represented by the following characteristics:

• relatively short growing season;
• the ability to form marketable bulbs during the dry season;
• simultaneous lodging of tops and the possibility of simultaneous harvesting;
• low risk of damage to the bulb by diseases such as neck rot and peronosporosis;
• the possibility of long-term storage of the crop;
• high quality indicators of the planted greens.

The total mass of each nest is quite large, which favorably affects the overall yield of the bulbs.

The main advantage of the family onion is the ability to form marketable bulbs in the dry season.

Further care

Growing shallots for both greens and turnips is in many ways similar to the technology for cultivating onions, but there are some nuances that are very important to consider if you need to get a high and high-quality crop:

• during active vegetation, the crop requires regular watering, carried out approximately once every five days, at the rate of 10 liters per square meter of planting;
• shallots will need one top dressing in mid-June with a solution of manure infusion diluted in a ratio of 1:10 or bird droppings in a ratio of 1:15;
• we should not forget about the systematic removal of weeds and periodic loosening of the soil between the rows;
• of diseases for onions, the greatest danger is cervical, gray and white rot, as well as fusarium, peronosporosis, rust, mosaic and tracheomycosis;
• to prevent damage by diseases and pests, it is necessary to control the density of plantings, observe agricultural practices and timely remove specimens with symptoms of diseases.

How to prepare a bow for planting (video)

When growing shallots, one should remember the pattern, according to which the more bulbs are formed in the nest, the smaller their size will be, therefore, experienced vegetable growers recommend rationing the number of bulbs in each nest.

In order not to lose the material, be sure to save it to your social network by simply clicking on the button below.

The color of the bulbs is golden yellow, the shape is oval. Keeps well (only needs to dry for about two weeks). I store in braids and in low boxes.

To get early greens, in February (around the 15th) I cut off the top of the head to the shoulders. I soak overnight in warm water with potassium permanganate (light solution), and the next day I plant it in pallets with a layer of 5 cm of soil, using a bridge method - close to each other.

I fill the top with sand so that there are no midges. A month later, the greens are ready.

We eat ourselves, and sell the surplus on the market - an increase in pensions. Yes, and at least some work.

I have another variety of onions - multi-tiered, also a favorite. Frost withstands up to -45 °. It seems that when the snow melts in spring, it has already begun to grow. It turns out he doesn't have a dormant period.

We have in Western Siberia the growth of green mass in winter is restrained by severe frosts. Reproduction occurs by onion bulbs, which are formed on the arrow, and by dividing the bulbs. My fart is unpretentious, but it does not refuse good land either. I pamper him: I water him when it's hot, I feed him with organic matter, the bed is in a sunny place, well seasoned with humus.

After 3-4 years, the bulbs need to be dug up, divided and planted, because the onion grows rapidly. You need to sit down either in the spring or in August. Bulbs are stored up to 5 months. It is necessary to collect them in August and immediately plant them in the beds. The feather, if not cut, can grow up to 65 cm in height.

This is the most fruitful onion that gives a large number of green mass. A cut feather can lie for 3-4 days and not fade, and after cutting, a new one quickly grows. I bought it and don't regret it.

Onion: agricultural technology and new varieties

There will be a big turnip

Onion is not such a simple culture as it seems at first glance. To grow big good taste turnip and so that the harvest is enough until the next season, we need good variety and suitable technology.

Onion won't get sick

Not immediately I managed to master the agricultural technology of onions. I tried to grow it from nigella (botanical onion seeds.- Ed.). Is it bad to get a head the size of a fist from a small black seed in a season? But larger than a walnut, when sown with seeds, onions did not grow. Then I switched to sevok.

Through trial and error, I determined that success largely depends on the quality of the planting material. Moreover, it is important that the onion not only corresponds to the declared variety and is healthy. It must be stored properly: at a certain humidity and temperature. If it is stored at a positive low temperature (above plus 5 °), the sevok, instead of forming a head, will give a flower arrow (it will shoot itself). This will not happen if the onion is stored in a dry and hot place. And also if, two months before planting, the seeds are subjected to alternating effects of heat and cold.

The size of the set is also important. Large and larger than medium-sized seed bulbs often go into bloom. And small sevok almost never blooms. And it is very convenient to plant it before winter.

However, in last years autumn is usually long and warm. Define the right time landing is difficult. And a significant part of the onion dies by spring. Therefore, I plant small sets in mid-April.

But sevok ( Stuttgarter Riesen and Albion ) standard size because it should not be affected low temperatures, you live at the end of April.

Onions love loose, fertile, neutral soil. For digging, I bring Kemira-Universal, Mitt-Leider mixture No. 1 onto the beds ( dolomite flour with boric acid) and water the soil with the biopreparation Radiance. I cut grooves, fill them with biohumus. I plant the bulbs at intervals of 5-7 cm, having previously treated them for 30 minutes with the fungicidal drug Maxim (2 ml / 1 liter of water per 1 kg of bulbs).

Two weeks after planting for prevention powdery mildew I spray onion greens with Ridomil Gold fungicide. From the onion fly of the first generation (flying in the third decade of May), I treat the planting with Karate insecticide. Before lodging the feather, so that the onion does not rot during storage, I spray the beds with copper sulphate.

Until the beginning of July, I water the onions with infusions different herbs, adding to them Lignohumate, Gumistar. After each watering and after the rains, I will definitely loosen the aisles. I regularly weed all the weeds: the onions need morning and evening rays, and the grass should not interfere with this. In addition, unnecessary vegetation does not allow the onion to develop freely.

During the season I spend three top dressing at the root. the first- Lignohumate and Kemira-Combi, when 3-4 leaves grow. second- Lignohumate and potassium monophosphate after a week and a half. The third - Lignohumate and potassium sulfate, when the leaves stop growing. Also, a couple of times, alternating preparations, I spray onions on the leaves with Lignohumate, Zircon or Cytovit, Mortar and Mag-boron. In the second half of the growing season, I completely stop watering.

I don’t pluck the leaf from the onion, which I grow on a turnip: an infection can penetrate through the wounds, and when there is not enough feather, the bulb grows small.

I remove the bow when the feather falls down. I lay it out with a feather to dry in the sun. If the bow is a wall, although it is time to pull it out, I carefully dig it in with a pitchfork and pull it out slightly to injure the roots. And after a few days I clean it completely. If you leave the onion in the garden, it may begin to grow new roots. As a result, it will dry poorly and subsequently be stored worse.

Does it not allow you to get a good harvest? In our article, we will tell you a few secrets about how to plant and grow family plants in Siberia.

The best onion varieties for Siberia

List of the best varieties of onion sets for Siberia:

1. - This variety is early maturing. The bulbs are round, they can have a weight of 100 to 200 g. The taste is mild. This variety keeps well. If there is not enough moisture when growing onions, then the fruits are small and bitter.
2. - This is a mid-season variety. From seed germination to bending down 80-100 days. Dense bulbs grow from 30 to 60 g. This variety has a sharp taste.
   
3. - refers to early maturing varieties. The bulbs are rounded flat. The outer scales are dry, yellow with a pinkish tinge. The mass of bulbs of this variety can reach 200 g. The annual Siberian variety is considered salad.
   
4. - Productive, early maturing variety. Bulbs grow weighing about 30 g. The shape can be either rounded flat or flat.
   

Did you know? More than 400 types of onions are known in the world. About half of them are grown in Russia.

Optimal timing for landing in harsh conditions

Sevok in Siberia is planted in the spring, when the top layer warms up to 10 ° C. Usually this is done in late April - early May, before the 10th.

If planted later than these dates, then due to low humidity, the crop will be poor.

planting material requirements

The sevok should be about the same size. planting material should not have rotten and moldy onions. And also they should not be massively sprouted.


Preparatory work before boarding

In the spring, the bed should be fertilized. Contribute to 1 sq. m (15 g), double (30 g), (30 g). If, then in the fall lime or wood ash is added to it (0.5 l per 1 sq. M).


Sewing preparation

Several ways to prepare sevka:

1. In 5 liters of water pour 2 tbsp. l. salt. In this solution, soak the bulbs for a day. After that, you need to withstand them for 15 minutes. in a light solution. Plant them in the ground without drying.
2. Sevok is heated for 10 hours in water at a temperature of 40 ° C. It is necessary to constantly add hot water. After that, it is treated with growth stimulants. To prevent damage, the seedlings are dipped in a solution or manganese.
3. If there is no time to warm up the bulbs, then you can lower them into water at a temperature of 55 ° C for 15 minutes, and then immediately into cold water for the same time. Next, disinfect with potassium permanganate.
4. Onions are dried for 10-20 days at a temperature of 25 ° C to prevent fungal infections.

Scheme and planting depth

Seeds are sorted by size before planting.

Landing pattern:

• sets with a diameter of less than 1 cm are planted at a distance of about 5 cm;
• if the bulbs are 1.5 cm, then the distance is increased by 8 cm;
• if the diameter of the onion exceeds 2 cm, then plant it at a distance of 10 cm.

The sowing is deepened by 4 cm, and 20 cm is left between the rows to make it easier to care for it.

If you place the sets more often, then it is poorly ventilated and there is a risk.
When the sevok was loaded and tightly compressed with earth, it is necessary to have beds with straw,.

Did you know?Onions contain more natural sugar than pears and apples.

Features of care

Onion care does not require special skills.

Watering

On the early stages need a regular one. Depending on the weather, water once a week, using 7 liters of water per 1 sq. m. During the ripening of the bulbs must be reduced.
Watch out for appearance plants: bluish-white feathers bent at the ends indicate a lack of moisture, and pale green leaves indicate waterlogging. Stop 2 weeks before harvest.

The beds with this crop are loosened even before shoots have appeared. Deepen 3 cm into the soil. So that a dense soil crust does not form, loosening is carried out every 2 weeks. Regular weeding of beds will help get rid of.

Fertilization

When 3-4 leaves appeared, then the first time the plants. They contribute to the rows (25 g per bucket of water). Then fertilize after a month. Superphosphate (20 g) and (20 g) are added, diluted in a bucket of water.
