Onions are considered to be a rather capricious crop that requires attention from summer residents.
Many people know that in order to get a full harvest, it is necessary to extract the head in time.
Let's discuss important rules for caring for onions.
First of all, it is important to remember that you should start harvesting on time. When the heads are fully ripe, it is time to extract them from the ground.
First of all, it is necessary to take into account the characteristics of the variety, which can be mid-season, early-season or late-season.
Onions should be harvested from the beds correctly. You should choose a day without precipitation and start harvesting in the morning so that the harvested crop can be easily dried.
There is also one interesting technique that gardeners use before digging up the head.
A week before harvesting, the soil around each plant should be lightly loosened. This will allow for a much faster harvest.
