SOW:  For the finest onions, seed directly outdoors in full sun and well drained soil. Planting depth 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Space rows 12 inches apart. Scatter seed in the row at the rate of 3 seeds per inch.

START INDOORS: Seed can be started indoors 8-10 weeks before transplanting outdoors.  When transplanting, clip plants to three inches and plant 2 inches deep

THIN: When seedlings are 3 inches high, thin to stand 2 to 3 inches apart.

Suggestions:  Fertile, moist soil enriched with compost is best for onion production.  Onions ward off many insect pests around lettuce, cabbage and carrots.  Use thinnings as green onions.
