Digging up such a harvest will be a pleasure, and dishes with this onion will acquire an incredible aroma and taste.

It is impossible to find a summer resident who would not like to grow large onions. Smart gardeners dig up bulbs the size of Delicious or Melba apples from the ground without much effort.

Experienced gardeners know that the secret of an amazing harvest is not only in fertilizing. The proximity of onions to other crops is also important.

Many summer residents have noticed that onions feel great next to some plants, but with others they wither and produce a mediocre harvest.

Proper site planning is not a panacea or a secret path to a cellar filled to capacity, but it is a real opportunity to increase the harvest by at least 20-30%.
