The best varieties of annual onions

Most of the villagers traditionally grow onion sets. This method guarantees the harvest of large bulbs, and the planting material is consumed sparingly, because the size of the seeding plant allows it to be distributed over the garden at the desired distance. Far from everyone succeeds in growing this crop from seeds in one season, and the main reason for failure is the wrong choice of variety. But you can get excellent yields when sowing nigella onions by correctly selecting varieties and hybrids, and the cost of seed will be much less than when buying seedlings.

Onion varieties from seeds in one season

Pros and cons of annual growing

Besides reducing costs, this method of growing has other advantages. Firstly, onions from seeds are not susceptible to shooting, unlike sets, which require special storage conditions. Secondly, it is quite difficult to grow a high-quality set on your own, as well as to keep it until spring planting. But to obtain seeds, much effort is not required: it is enough to plant several large bulbs in the garden in the spring and collect flower stalks after ripening.

Growing and caring for onions

The downside is that only a limited number of varieties are suitable for annual cultivation, especially taking into account the seedless cultivation method. In addition, some of them, although they give large marketable bulbs, can only be stored until January. And one more thing: when sowing in open ground, the seedlings need enhanced care, since the sprouts are very thin, weak, and easily clogged with weeds.

Variety selection criteria

To get a good harvest, you need to choose the right variety.

When choosing a variety or hybrid of onions, you should pay attention to the following criteria:

• ripening terms. Early varieties form a bulb in 90 days, in mid-ripening vegetation lasts 110 days, late ripening takes from 120 to 130 days. As a result, some are intended for summer use and for greens, others are grown exclusively for turnip;
• the number of primordia in one plant.Small-sized (small-breeding) varieties most often give only one bulb, less often two, and are grown for a turnip. Multi-primordia form at least five pieces in a nest and give a lot of feathers to greens;
• the size of the roots. Bulbs weighing up to 50 g are considered small, medium ones reach 120 g, large ones grow up to 400 g and more.

The taste of the onion is also important. As you know, it is spicy, semi-sharp and sweet, used mainly in the preparation of salads. The characteristics of the variety are always indicated by the seed producers on the packaging, and a careful study of this information will help to avoid mistakes when choosing.

A few secrets of growing onions annually

High-quality seed is one of the most important conditions for obtaining marketable bulbs, but mistakes made during cultivation can nullify the result. There are certain secrets of onion agricultural technology that every gardener needs to familiarize himself with.

The most important thing is to choose the right seeds. Nigella onions very quickly lose their germination, and if the expiration date on the package expires in the year of planting, the seeds are considered already old and can only sprout 20-30%. It is best to sow seeds harvested in the previous fall, then the similarity will be at least 90%. With the high cost of varietal seeds, this is of great importance in terms of savings.

When and how to collect onion seeds (nigella)

Onion seeds germinate for a long time, and when grown in a seedless way, some of the sprouts are clogged with weeds and die. To prevent this from happening, it is recommended to pre-treat the seeds with a solution of potassium permanganate and soak them in water for a day. A growth stimulant can be added to the water.

Soaking onion seeds

After soaking, the seed is dried until flowable and sown in the ground. As a result of such actions, the seeds hatch faster, and the weeds do not have time to drown out the sprouts.

Sowing onions using a seeder

Onion shoots

A loose, nutritious soil and an open, sunny place are necessary for the formation of bulbs. The best precursors for onions are legumes, cucumbers, cabbage and potatoes. The garden bed should be prepared in the fall: it is well dug up, fertilized with rotted compost, mineral fertilizers are added. On dense soil, the bulbs are small, often do not fully ripen and are affected by rot.

To keep the onion well, watering is stopped no later than 3 weeks before harvesting.

The last time the onion is watered is a couple of weeks before harvest.

Harvested in warm, dry weather, and then dried for another week under a canopy. Subject to these conditions, everyone can grow large commercial bulbs from seeds.

Of the cultivated species, onions are the most widespread. It is not very rich in vitamins. True, green onions contain much more vitamin C than onions, more potassium, calcium, phosphorus, and iron salts in it. But the main advantage of all types of onions is essential oils, which stimulate gastric secretion, increase appetite, and, finally, phytoncides are fierce enemies of bacteria.

Using one or another cultivation technology, onions can be grown in one year from nigella seeds and in two years from onion sets.

With an annual onion culture, seeds are sown as soon as the soil allows in March. The time from sowing to emergence is 21 days. They accelerate the emergence of seedlings by pre-sowing heat treatment of seeds, soaking them, including in growth stimulants. During the period of seed germination and after the appearance of the fifth leaf, onions must be watered. With a lack of moisture in the soil, the growth of leaves stops, and small, underdeveloped bulbs are formed, even if there are only 2-3 true leaves. Then the plant falls into a dormant state. This phenomenon in onions is irreversible. Therefore, violation of agricultural techniques for growing onions in the open field, especially in the first 70-80 days of growth, can lead to large crop losses.

For the successful cultivation of onions, seeds are sown in rows, the distance between them is 20-25 cm, the planting depth is 2-3 cm.It is useful to mulch onion crops with humus, which prevents the appearance of a soil crust, retains moisture in the soil, which contributes to the appearance of friendly shoots.

At first, onion shoots grow very slowly, they need to be watered and loosened. Loosening should not be deep (4-5 cm) so as not to damage the root system.

When 1-2 true leaves appear, the first thinning of crops (up to 1.5-2 cm) is carried out in strongly thickened places, removing weaker plants. After the formation of 3-4 leaves, a second thinning is done already at the final distance of 4-6 cm.

When growing and caring for onions with thinning, as with watering, you must not be late. Otherwise, thickening and dryness of the soil accelerate the formation of small bulbs with an insufficient number of leaves.

For growing onions through a set, healthy bulbs are used. After winter storage, the sets are sorted out before planting. If in the previous year, during cultivation, the plants were affected by downy mildew, the seedlings should be warmed up for 10-15 days before planting for 8 hours at a temperature of + 40 ... + 42 ° C for disinfection. The high temperature will also help reduce plant shooting.

Sevok is planted, without deepening, in April in heated soil. Planting too early will cause arrows to form; later planting will reduce the yield. The arrows that appear break out.

The video "Growing Onions" shows all the main agricultural techniques:

Pay attention to the photo - when growing and caring for onions, when the bulbs are poured, the soil or mulching material is removed from them so that the ripening crop is in the sun:

Watering should be stopped 2-3 weeks before the expected harvesting date, the bulbs should ripen well. A sign of readiness of onions for harvesting is mass lodging of leaves. Harvested in dry weather.

Traditional varieties of onions for a turnip are those with large, flattened or globular bulbs that can be stored throughout the winter. The color of the scales varies from almost white to bright red; the taste of the onion ranges from mild to pungent. Most varieties are planted in the spring, but there are varieties that are planted in the fall and harvested at the end of July of the following year. In the south, with mild winters, Japanese varieties are the most reliable when planted before winter, but they are unsuitable for long-term storage.

Remember!

Onions grown for feathers are not treated with any pesticides.

Leaves are not cut from onions planted to obtain a turnip.

A good harvest of onions can be obtained only in a sunny place, free from the roots of perennial plants (trees and shrubs).

Seed-grown onions keep better. Onions with yellow and dark red skins are especially well kept.

From seedlings stored at temperatures from + 1 ° C to + 18 ° C (constantly or periodically), the plants quickly go to the arrow.

More early ripening, high-yielding, it is more dense, transportable and keeping quality in comparison with onions. The bulbs are hardy, they can freeze and thaw without damage, while retaining the ability to regrow. Virtually no arrows.

Multifaceted bulbs (shrews), from one bulb you can get a nest weighing up to 500 g, containing up to 40 bulbs of 15-30 g, depending on the variety. Prized for its special pungent taste, it is considered the best onion for cooking. Bulbs for planting are stored in a cool, bright place.

Reproduction of shallots is carried out, as a rule, vegetatively, that is, by dividing the bulb into shares. When planted in autumn, the shrike produces a large number of seeds. Reproduction of shallots through seeds has health benefits. This onion has more delicate leaves than onions. From 30 to 35 leaves are formed on the bulb, which is 3-4 times more than that of a turnip. Ripen 1-1.5 months earlier than the last.

Mainly cultivated for early greenery in open and protected ground.Small lobes are planted in grooves 4-6 cm deep, the distance between them in a row: on a turnip - 8 cm, on greens - 4 cm, the aisles are the same as for onions.

When growing shallots in greenhouses in winter, remember that shallots have a deep dormant period. Therefore, before planting the bulbs, it is necessary to cut the neck to the shoulders and warm it up in water for 2-3 hours at a temperature of + 40 ... + 45 ° C.

Shallots require significantly less watering than onions, which is very important in places with a lack of irrigation water. Otherwise, the care is the same as for onions.

Check out the basic techniques for growing and caring for shallots in these photos:

Growing and caring for chives in the open field (with photo)

Chives on the photo

Chives are a perennial herb that produces good greens throughout the year. In the open field, in one place, you can grow for four to five years. This plant can be grown in greenhouses and even in a room. The leaves of chives are very delicate, slightly pungent and fragrant. They contain vitamin C, carotene, sugar, essential oils, mineral salts. In terms of chemical composition, this is one of the most valuable vegetable onions; in terms of calorie content, it surpasses onions. In spring it grows back very quickly and forms a large green mass.

To obtain the highest yield, cultivation of chives is best done on moist, weed-free soils. It can be grown by sowing seeds in open ground in early spring with a seeding depth of 0.5-1 cm or vegetatively by dividing bushes. Bushes are planted at a distance of 20 cm from each other, divided every 3-4 years. With prolonged cultivation for more than four years, 50-60 daughter plants are formed in the bush, the leaves become small, the yield decreases. Chives, after seed ripening in June, grows back and gives good greens in the second half of summer and autumn.

When growing chives, caring for plants includes loosening, watering, weeding. Water regularly; the best condition for growth is a sunny place. Young greens are harvested several times during the growing season. Leaves are cut at a height of 2 cm above soil level. If you are interested in getting greens throughout the season, then cut the leaves whole, and do not pinch off the tops, and do not let the onions bloom.

It is possible to use this type of onion as an ornamental culture, as it forms openwork spherical inflorescences of pink or purple color.

Look at the photo of growing chives and caring for plants to better understand how all the basic agricultural techniques are performed:

The best varieties of chives

"Honey plant" - mid-early, semi-acute.The period from the emergence of mass shoots (regrowth of leaves) to the beginning of harvesting is 36-50 days. The variety is characterized by amicable growth of greenery in spring and long-term yield, which is up to 2.5 kg / m2 per season.

"Albion" - mid-season, winter-hardy variety of chives. For one onion 2-3 leaves. The length of the leaves is up to 38 cm, the width is 0.6 cm, the length of the false stem is 2.2 cm. The weight of one plant is 15-18 g. The taste is spicy. The yield per cut is 1.7-2.0 kg / m2.

"Spring" - mid-season, winter-hardy variety. The plant forms a powerful bush with a high degree of branching, up to 60 cm high. Leaf length 38 cm, width 0.8 cm. False stem up to 10 cm long. The taste is weak. Productivity for the growing season is up to 6.0 kg / m2 (3-4 cuts).

"Nemal" - the mass of leaves on one plant is 580 g, false bulbs 290 g, the predominant color of the leaves is green, with a medium waxy bloom. The taste is spicy. The optimal yield is 6.84 kg / m2. It is cultivated on a green feather as an early spring vitamin green.

"Erecta" - forms a rich green mass with delicate leaves of a pleasant taste. It blooms with beautiful, large, pink-lilac flowers.

Growing conditions and care for leeks (with video)

Onion -porey in the photo

This type of onion resembles garlic in appearance. But this is only an external resemblance. The leaves are flat, folded along the central vein up to 50-60 cm long. It does not form bulbs; leaves and a dense bleached stem (leg) are used for food.

Leek is one of the most valuable types of onion. It has excellent taste and gives fresh greens until the very frost. This culture lacks a pungent smell and taste. Its aroma is softer, and its taste is subtler, more pleasant, sweeter than that of onions. Leeks contain vitamins C, E, B1, B2, PP.

As you can see in the photo, this type of onion is used as salad greens:

The lower leaves form a false stem 10-30 cm long, 2-5 cm in diameter. Leeks are also canned, salted, pickled, dried, frozen.

An important property of leeks is that during winter storage there is not a decrease, but a significant increase in the vitamin C content in the stem due to the outflow from the leaves.

Leeks are grown both by seedlings and by sowing seeds in the ground. The time from sowing to germination is 14-18 days. Seeds remain viable for 3 years.

It is a very moisture-loving plant, so one of the conditions for growing leeks is to provide the plants with sufficient water. The culture is very demanding on soil fertility. If organic fertilizers were not introduced for digging in the fall (10 kg of humus per 1 m2), then during the growing season, additional feeding with infusion of mullein or chicken droppings should be carried out.

A distinctive feature of caring for leeks during cultivation is that in the second half of summer (in July, August) it must be hilled 2-3 times. This exercise allows you to get a long, delicate, well-bleached leg. Although the leaves of the leek grow until late autumn, you should not delay harvesting, especially if the onion is intended for storage.

In warm years, leek winters well in the open field.

The video of growing leeks shows all the main agricultural practices:

The best leek varieties for the middle lane

Among the best varieties of leeks are:

"Karantansky" - late ripening variety, vegetation period 125-176 days from germination to technical ripeness. Semi-sharp, the leg is short - 10-25 cm, cylindrical in shape, the thickness in the middle part is 5 cm, the mass of the leg is about 100 g.

"Winter giant"... Due to its frost resistance and late ripening, the variety is especially valuable for consumption in winter. This leek variety forms a thick, long stem with a wonderful mild flavor. Disease resistant, stored until May.

"Elephant's trunk" - biennial plant. Leaves 80-90 cm long, covered with a waxy bloom, delicate, slightly pungent in taste.

"White Lisbon" - special type of onion for salad purposes.Forms rich, juicy greens of pleasant taste with a massive, thick and very delicate base. In the middle lane, this variety of leeks can be planted before winter - then you will provide yourself with the earliest spring greens.

"Russian size" - a plant with a giant "leg" of at least 60 cm. Early ripening, valued for its high potassium content.

The best varieties of onion-batuna, planting, care and cultivation

Onion-batun in the photo

Batun onion is a perennial herb, does not form bulbs, branches strongly and forms a large leaf mass, contains twice as much vitamin C as onions, in addition, it is rich in carotene, vitamins B1, B2, D, proteins, phosphorus salts and copper.

Among the varieties of onion-batun, the most famous is "April". This is an early ripe variety, from germination to technical maturity, it takes 30-40 days. The color of the leaves is dark green, with a weak waxy bloom, the weight of the plant is 200-300 g. The taste is semi-sharp, the leaves are tender, juicy, do not coarse for a long time.

"Russian winter" - mid-season, winter-hardy variety. This one of the best varieties of onion is cultivated in both annual and perennial crops. The taste is semi-sharp, the leaves are tender. With perennial culture - 2-3 cuts of green feathers per summer.

When growing and caring for the onion, keep in mind that it is a light-loving, cold-resistant plant. It tolerates spring frosts down to -10 ° C. Plant development begins in spring at a temperature of + 2 ° C. It can grow in one place for 4-5 years. With regular harvesting, the leaves grow back throughout the summer.

The plant is propagated by seeds and dividing the bush. Planting and caring for batun onions can be carried out during the spring and summer. The seeding depth is 2-3 cm. When propagating by dividing the bush, one plant gives 5-7 daughter plants per year. It is better to transplant at the end of August - September, while the leaves are cut off so as not to cover the growing point. After planting, when growing onions, watering is required.

Multi-tiered onions: planting, care and cultivation (with photo)

Multi-tiered bow in the photo

The tiered bow is a type of perennial bow. Outwardly, it looks like onion and batun. Just like onions, this type of onion forms fist-like leaves and a true basal bulb. Its main difference from the batun and onion is in the structure of the flower arrow.

Look at the photo - the arrow of a multi-tiered bow ends not with flowers, but with air bulbs located in 3-4 tiers:

The largest air bulbs (bulbs) are on the 1st tier, the smallest ones on the 3rd and 4th. Does not form seeds, propagates only vegetatively - air bulbs and basal bulbs by dividing the bush. It grows in one place for 4-5 years. Very winter-hardy. It tolerates frost well down to -40 ° С.

In multi-tiered onions, all parts of the plant (leaves, basal bulbs and bulbs) are eaten fresh and canned. They are used as a seasoning for the first and second courses, in the preparation of meat and vegetable okroshka, various salads, marinades. The green leaves of this onion are a good decoration for snack dishes (cold fish, caviar, mushrooms, etc.).

To grow multi-tiered onions for digging the soil before planting, add a bucket of humus, 20-30 g of superphosphate, 15 g of potassium chloride, 10 g of ammonium nitrate per 1 m2. Planting in spring gives the onion an opportunity to take root, it grows quickly, and nutrients accumulate in it by winter. Bulbs are planted before winter (in October - November). Spring planting of an early good harvest in the first year does not.

The onions are planted in an ordinary way, the row spacing is 40-45 cm, to a depth of 3-5 cm.For ease of care, when planting a multi-tiered onion, an interval of 3-4 cm is left between the plants. During the growing season, care consists in weeding, watering, loosening, feeding organic fertilizers.

These photos of growing multi-tiered onions show how to care for plants in a garden plot:

Cuts of feathers begin in early spring when they reach a height of 25-30 cm, you can, if necessary, cut off younger greens throughout the summer. The highest yield is given by 2-3-year-old plantations.

Bulbs and basal bulbs do not have a dormant period, therefore, after removing them from the plant, they can be planted immediately, before planting, the nests of the bulbs are divided into separate bulbs.

Growing and caring for this type of onion in the off-season is carried out in hotbeds and greenhouses. This requires a temperature of only plus + 10 ... + 12 ° С. You need to store onions for forcing with a whole nest in the ground. They root well, branch out and form a green mass after 35-40 days. By means of pavement (solid) planting per 1 m2, 10-12 kg of bulbs will be required. The yield of green feathers is 13-18 kg from 1 / m2.

The value of this onion lies in the fact that, in comparison with others, it contains an increased amount of ascorbic acid (in the leaves - 50-75 mg, in the bulbs - 30-50 mg per 100 g of raw mass), a lot of essential oil. There are also vitamins B1, B2, PP, carotene. The phytoncidal activity of multi-tiered onions is also slightly higher than that of other perennial types of onions (batun, schnitt, slug).
