Many experienced gardeners are now actively working on the issue of autumn planting of a number of crops.
As a result, they can get a very decent harvest.
A good solution would be to plant onions in the winter, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.
It is important not only to choose the right vegetable variety, but also to pay attention to other important points.
What do they consist of?
Good landing spot
It is important to remember that not every predecessor is suitable for subsequent planting of onions. Therefore, it is extremely important to choose the best option.
For example, onions will feel good after legumes (peas and beans in particular), cucumbers and carrots. Some people also plant onions after potatoes.
Soil cultivation
Since the soil experiences a deficiency of nutrients after harvesting, their reserves need to be replenished. Remember that these activities are carried out in advance.
Ash is often used as a universal and high-quality fertilizer. 200 grams of the product is enough for a whole square meter of soil.
Also, for the same area, take 20 grams of potassium sulfate and twice as much superphosphate.
Processing the onion itself
In order for the harvest to be truly worthy and impressive, it is necessary to process the planting material itself.
For this you can use any convenient method.
You can leave the planting material in a saline solution (a spoonful of the product per four glasses of water) for literally 20 minutes.
