Which sets to choose so that the onions do not go to seed: instructions for novice gardeners
It is believed that once the bulb has gone into flower, it is lost for the harvest.
To prevent bolting, smart summer residents use a whole range of techniques.
But, first of all, you should take a responsible approach to choosing planting material.
So, to grow onions without shoots, you should choose not very large sets.
The larger the bulbs that are to be planted in the ground, the greater the chance that an arrow will emerge from them.
Therefore, when going to a gardening store, choose onion sets that are no larger than a hazelnut (no more than 3 cm in diameter).
In addition, there is another requirement for the bulbs - they must be dense.
Finally, before sowing, it is worth warming up the sets. This simple action is also used to prevent the onion from producing bolts.
