Onion 'Barletta'

Keep soil moist, keep weeds under tight control.

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Barletta is thought of as very hardy, so this plant will tend to survive through freezing conditions. Ideally plant in loamy, clay and sandy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.0 and 7.0 as Barletta likes to be in 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 Barletta about 28 days before your last frost date.

Will grow best in a fairly rich, light loam adequate in potassium, phosphorus, but not too much nitrogen.

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