Start Sweet Spanish Yellow Utah Jumbo Onion seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before transplanting outdoors. When transplanting, clip plants to 3" and plant 2" deep. Or, sow directly in the garden when the ground can be worked, placing 2-3 seeds per inch. Thin to 3" apart when the plants are 6" tall. Harvest onions by pulling bulbs when the tops are brown and dry.
Planting Depth: .5"
Seed Spacing: Sow Sweet Spanish Yellow Utah Jumbo Onion seeds roughly 3" apart in rows, keeping each row approximately 18" apart.
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.
