Onion Sets - Spring Planting

ONION SETS
(Certified free from eelworm)
Place sets 10 to 15cm (4 to 6") apart with 23 to 30cm (9 to 12") between the rows. Plant mid-March to end of April as soon as weather. allows, do not plant in cold wet ground or it will encourage bolting. Weed by hand or carefully hoe.  Protection from birds may be necessary and ‘Hummline’ has proved successful as has fibre fleece.  In ideal conditions 100 onion sets will produce around 20Kg of onions.  Onion sets come in 100 set (approx 400g) packs (with the exception of Santero F1 which comes in a 250g pack). Spread sets out on arrival in full light and cool conditions. Onion sets need time to dry and mature to ensure best quality.
