Sow Right Seeds Red Creole Onion

These are short-day onions, which means they are specifically bred to begin bulb formation when day lengths are shorter, typically 10 to 12 hours. They are best suited for southern climates where these conditions occur naturally.

While you can direct sow, starting them indoors before the last frost is recommended to give your plants a head start. This ensures they have enough time to establish before the heat of summer sets in.

To maximize their storage life, you must cure the bulbs properly. After harvesting, lay them out in a dry, airy, and shaded location until the outer skins are papery and the necks are completely dry.

For optimal bulb development, space your plants approximately 15.24 cm (6 inches) apart. This spacing ensures each onion has enough room to grow to its full size without competing for nutrients.
