Now it’s time to think about what crops you will plant in the winter.
This will help you prepare properly for planting work.
An excellent solution would be to plant onion sets. It is known that this crop tolerates cold weather well, while developing well.
However, in order to reap a good harvest, it is recommended to familiarize yourself with some rules.
What do they consist of?
Date of planting operations
In matters of planting onion sets, this moment is the most important, so it is worthwhile to accurately determine the planting date. It is important to understand that everything will directly depend on weather conditions.
It is best to start planting about a month before the real cold weather sets in. The temperature should be around minus three.
In this case, the harvest will be excellent. The onion sets will not have time to sprout, but they will have enough time to take root.
The planting process
This is also an important point that is worth paying attention to. First of all, you need to make furrows for laying the planting material.
Their depth should be no more than three centimeters.
We introduce seeds, "cover" with a layer of soil. Afterwards it is worth adding a layer of humus. The rows should be located at a distance of thirty centimeters from each other.
