Are you keen to become self sufficient in the garden? Onions are a brilliant crop to learn to grow from seed, store, and then grow your own seeds, improving the crop quality and yield every year!

The epigenetic of seed saving is quite facinating. I've managed to get hold of some Egyptian Walking Onions. Excited to get that established in my food forest nook.

@FantailValleyHomestead 7 месяцев назад

Oh yes, it is an interesting topic. Walking onions are a great addition to a wilder food space for sure.

Thanks, as always for the great info. So the key seems to be to know someone who's already growing great onions near you and grab some seeds!

@FantailValleyHomestead 7 месяцев назад

Absolutely! Local seeds seem to be the key to good strong growth in most veggies I am discovering

This is so interesting!! I have a question about saving seeds from 6 or so different onions. Do you mix all the seeds together or do you keep them separately and continue to plant them separately? Hopefully you understand my question. Thank you! 🙏 From Tauranga 💚

@FantailValleyHomestead 7 месяцев назад

Then I mix them all together, and share them with friends and family so everyone gets some of each.

Great information. Thank you. Where do you recommend purchasing onion seed from?

@FantailValleyHomestead 7 месяцев назад

I got mine from Sentinel Seeds in Christchurch

@thatonegirl1837 7 месяцев назад

How do you store them over winter to use again in the spring? What keeps them from rotting? I'm sorry if you said this information and I missed it. I'm always running around like crazy lol

@FantailValleyHomestead 7 месяцев назад

It is OK, I don't remember if I said it or not haha. It needs to be cool and dry with plenty of air exchange so they don't rot.

I planted brown onions that I bought from the supermarket in Melbourne and collected the seeds from them. I got a couple of dozen onions but many tried to flower. Are supermarket onions long day onions?

@FantailValleyHomestead 7 месяцев назад

It would depend where the onions are grown commercially, I think the line cut off for short day vs long day is about 37 latitude, which must mean most if not all of OZ needs long day ones? though I would expect somewhere like Perth would be hot enough to need short day onions. So basically, it depends where they were grown, if they were grown locally to you they are likely to be long day onions.

Can you tellbke why you keep deleting my comment. I'm only trying to give you some advice

@sararockafella 3 месяца назад

For early seeding onions you cut back the stem that seeds once its curved round. And your onions woll carry on growing. Just cut ut where it exits the plant.
