Features:

• Versatile Planting: Optimized for fall planting (September–November) in zones 5–9, thriving in cooler conditions with strong frost and bolt resistance.

• Harvest Timing: Harvest as green onions in May or mature bulbs in June–July in zone 6A, offering disease-free, sizable onions.

• Size & Quantity: Sets are small, dry, immature bulbs (14–17mm), with approximately 100–120 sets per pound.

• Storage: Store in cool, dry conditions for 6 to 9 months; not suited for long-term storage but excels with proper curing.

• Growing Tips: For optimal results, plant in regions situated at 37° latitude and higher. Further South they won't size up as much, but are still good as a green top onion. Plant starting in October but continue until December or even January in zones 8 and 9.  Space 6" apart in either direction, or 1" x 1" for scallion-size onions. We have grown these in tunnels and also in garden, they do equally well in both places.
• Package Sizes: Note that the amounts are approximate, we do our best to make sure the right amount is In the bag but these are done by weight, and there is some variation in the size of the bulbs.
• Conventionally Grown: While we champion organic practices, it's important to note that these onions sets are conventionally grown.
