Many gardeners face serious problems when storing onions.

So, the vegetable can sprout. The beginning of the rotting process is also possible.

As a result, owners of country plots have to periodically sort through the bulbs to find and throw away the spoiled ones.

Some gardeners simply accept the fact that part of the harvest will be lost.

And in vain, because there is an interesting life hack that allows you to save absolutely all the bulbs!

The most ordinary candle will come to the aid of the gardener.

It is enough to hold each bulb over the candle flame for a short time.

The gardener's goal is to warm up the bottom and ensure that this part of the vegetable becomes dry along with the remains of the roots.

There is no need to set anything on fire. The onion needs to be warmed up, not fried.

The processed harvest will have incredible shelf life. The probability that even one bulb will sprout or rot will be minimal.

In winter, such a vegetable can be safely stored at home. The main thing is that the chosen place is dry and cool. The ideal option is a mezzanine.
