When planting at home or preparing the nursery, it is preferable to use light, soft soil from the agricultural soil section to provide a good environment for germination and initial root growth. Seeds are planted at a depth of approximately 0.5 to 1 cm in well-drained light soil. They can be grown in a nursery and then transplanted after a good root system develops. Leave approximately 40 cm between rows and 15 cm between plants within the row. Maintain soil moisture without waterlogging, especially during early germination stages. Choose a well-lit and ventilated location for better growth. Suitable soil for onion cultivation Onions grow best in light to medium, well-drained soil, free of large clumps as much as possible. Heavy soil or soil that retains water for long periods may affect root growth and bulb formation, so suitable soil options and media should be used when preparing the nursery or improving soil before transplanting. In home gardening, onions can be grown in relatively deep pots or containers if loose soil and good drainage are available. Check the container section to select appropriate containers for growing root and bulb vegetables at home. Lighting and suitable location Red onions need good lighting and a well-ventilated open space. Poor lighting may lead to weak vegetative growth or lower quality bulb formation, so a sunny location suitable for field vegetables is preferred, avoiding planting in waterlogged soil or poorly drained areas. Watering and care after germination Onions require regular and balanced watering, especially during germination and early growth stages. Prolonged drought can slow seedling growth, while overwatering can weaken roots and cause soil problems. It is best to keep soil moderately moist and gradually reduce watering as harvest approaches. Keep soil moist after planting until seedlings appear. Avoid waterlogging or stagnant water around roots. Remove weeds to prevent competition for water and nutrients. Monitor seedlings after transplanting to ensure successful establishment. Reduce watering as bulbs mature to improve storage quality. Fertilization and bulb development support To produce uniform and quality bulbs, onions need balanced nutrition according to soil condition and growth stage. Suitable products from the agricultural fertilizers section can be used, following usage instructions and avoiding over-fertilization, especially during advanced bulb formation stages.
