Product Description

A very large onion, often weighing 2 pounds, that is excellent for slicing. Its white flesh has a mild, sweet delicious flavor. This packet will plant approximately a 16 foot row.

Start indoors 8-10 weeks before transplanting outdoors. When transplanting, clip green growth to 3 inches and plant 2 inches deep. Or, sow directly in garden when ground can be worked, placing 2-3 seeds per inch. Thin to 3 inches apart when plants are 6 inches tall. Harvest by pulling bulbs when tops are brown and dry.

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.
