Onion 'Electric'

Position in a full sun location and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Electric is thought of as very hardy, so this plant will tend to survive through freezing conditions. Electric needs a loamy, clay and sandy soil with a ph of 6.0 to 7.0 (weakly acidic soil to neutral soil).

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.98 inches (2.5 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 13°C / 55°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Electric about 28 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Electric is a very hardy plant.

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by early autumn.
