In most cases, summer residents try to plant more "popular" vegetables to provide their diet with tasty and familiar food.

That is why it is customary to allocate impressive beds for onions, because we use this component in the kitchen every day.

However, many people store the vegetable extremely poorly - it starts to sprout or rot. This happens because summer residents ignore important recommendations regarding preparatory work and the storage process itself, notes landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti".

How to Preserve Onions

It is worth remembering that the main condition for good storage of onions is their thorough drying. Many people make a mistake when they dry the vegetable directly on the plot.

This is best done in a room with a suitable temperature.

You should not remove the layers of the husk, as they, on the contrary, help to protect the onion from premature spoilage.

An important condition for preserving onions is to create the right conditions. The temperature should be around 22 degrees with a humidity level of 70%.
