Some summer residents believe that preliminary processing of seed onions is not a mandatory task.
Especially if they are confident in the quality of the planting material and have carried out important soil preparation procedures.
However, the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and scientist-agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh still recommends not to ignore the treatment.
What options can be considered?
Salt
This method is one of the most common. It can be called quite effective, as the onion grows stronger.
Salt treatment significantly reduces the interest of pests. Also, the vegetable is practically disease-free.
You just need to take a large spoon of salt per liter of water and leave the onions in the mixture for three hours.
Soda
No less effective and popular is the method based on the use of soda. You just need to take a small spoon of powder per liter of water.
It is believed that this will protect the onion from various diseases.
