- Soil requirements: Russian Heirloom Giant Onions prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These onions require full sun exposure, which means they need at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
- Watering requirements: Consistent watering is crucial for these onions. They need about 1 inch of water per week, either from rainfall or irrigation. Ensure the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Russian Heirloom Giant Onion seeds is in early spring, as soon as the soil can be worked. In warmer climates, they can also be planted in late fall.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them 4-6 inches apart in rows that are 12-18 inches apart. This spacing allows for adequate air circulation and room for the bulbs to grow.
- Germination time: The seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Russian Heirloom Giant Onions take approximately 100-120 days to reach maturity from the time of planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest these onions is in the early morning when the temperatures are cooler. This helps to prevent the onions from becoming too dry.
- Harvesting tips: When the tops of the onions start to yellow and fall over, it's a sign that they are ready to be harvested. Gently lift the onions from the soil using a garden fork. Allow them to cure in a dry, well-ventilated area for 2-3 weeks before storing. Store the onions in a cool, dry place to extend their shelf life.
