Instruction
1. It is necessary to plant onions towards the winter during the period from October 5 to October 20. For landing it is possible to use the following grades: Strigunovsky, Bessonovsky, Elan, "Arzamas", "Chalcedony", "Resident of Odintsovo", Myagkovsky, Danilovsky. Pay special attention on Strigunovsky and Bessonovsky, these grades are resistant to strelkovaniye, early keep up. It is possible to put several grades at once, it will allow you to decide further on the optimum choice.
2. The best predecessors of onions – tomatoes, cucumbers and potato. It is not recommended to land onions after carrots. Start preparation of beds for landing of onions towards the winter. Beds have to be at well lit place. Clean the earth from the vegetable remains. Width of bed has to be 90-100 centimeters, and height – 19-20 centimeters.
3. Disinfect the soil solution of copper vitriol (vitriol tablespoon on 10 liters of water) at the rate of the 2nd liter on square meter of the earth. Add 3 kilograms of manure humus, 2 tablespoons of superphosphate and 5 kilograms of peat on each meter of the soil, dig over.
4. After consolidation and alignment of bed make grooves of 5 centimeters in depth. The distance between ranks has to make 20 centimeters. Spread out small and dry-through lukovichka in groove through each 10-15 centimeters from each other (do not press them into the earth and do not put too close, so bulbs will grow the small size), fill up with torfoperegnoyny mix, pine needles or sawdust layer up to 3 centimeters. Thanks to mulch you will be able to keep bulbs from destruction by frost. If you are not going to carry out mulching of beds, then it is better to plant bulbs slightly more deeply as there is risk of destruction by frost. In the winter when air temperature falls below - 10-12os, outline as much as possible snow on bed.
