Plant seeds about 1\/4 inch deep in well-drained soil. Keep the soil consistently moist during germination, which typically takes 7-14 days. Once seedlings are established, thin them to 4-6 inches apart to allow room for bulb development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnions require full sun and regular watering. Keep the area weed-free to reduce competition. Stop watering once the tops begin to yellow and fall over, as this indicates the bulbs are maturing. Harvest when the tops have dried and the skins are papery. Cure the bulbs in a warm, dry, well-ventilated area before storing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e200 Red Grano Onion Seeds (Allium cepa).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67835982414134,"sku":"FOLIA2-1495","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6522514912_oyzx.jpg?v=1793096823","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/200-red-grano-onion-seeds-allium-cepa-sweet-garden-bulb","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
