How to fertilize onions when planting
The ideal fertilizer for feeding onions when planting is wood ash.
It is introduced directly into the furrows before planting.
But you shouldn't get carried away with nitrogen fertilizers. They are only necessary at the beginning of the growing season.
Due to excess nitrogen, the bulbs become loose and do not store well.
It is extremely important to plant onions in a timely manner. It is better not to rush, frosts can ruin the plantings.
