xan's Onions- red and yellow Care Instructions
If sowing directly, sow at a depth of approx. 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) between Onion plants.
Ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant - Onion is known for growing to a height of approximately 45.0 cm (that's 1.46 feet in imperial).
Your garden has full sun light, which is a great match for Onion.
Remember to water moderately.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (5b) is within the ideal range for Onion. The recommended range is between Zone 3 and 10.
A soil ph of between 6.0 and 7.0 is ideal for Onion as it does best in acidic to neutral soil so test your soil acidity often.
Onion tends to be susceptible to Snails, Slugs, Powdery mildew - onions, and Onion maggots so keep a note of any developing symptoms.
