1. Starting Indoors Sow seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before the last spring frost date, planting about 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix.
2. Germination Maintain consistent moisture and a warm soil temperature of 65-75°F. Seeds usually germinate in 7-14 days.
3. Hardening Off Gradually introduce seedlings to outdoor conditions over 7 days. They can tolerate light frosts once hardened.
4. Transplanting Plant outdoors in full sun, spacing them 4-6 inches apart. Trim the green tops slightly when transplanting to encourage bulb growth.
5. Care Keep weed-free; onions have shallow roots and hate competition. Water consistently, but pause watering once the tops begin to yellow and fall over to allow curing.
