Planting & Care

Start Tokyo Long Bunching Onion seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow in the garden once soil is workable. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in rows or broadcast in a prepared bed. Keep the seedbed evenly moist until germination. Thin seedlings to stand 2-4 inches apart to allow for proper development. For a continuous supply, succession sow every 3-4 weeks during the growing season.

Bunching onions thrive with consistent moisture and benefit from a side dressing of compost or balanced fertilizer every few weeks. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest by pulling entire plants or by cutting individual stalks above the soil line for cut-and-come-again production. With minimal care, Tokyo Long will provide flavorful green onions throughout the season.
