Planting & Care

Sow Crystal White Wax Onion seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. Plant seeds ¼ inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7–14 days. Once seedlings are sturdy, thin or transplant them to 2–4 inches apart to allow room for bulb development.

Onions require consistent moisture, especially during bulb formation, but avoid waterlogged soil. Mulch to suppress weeds and retain moisture. Stop watering when tops begin to yellow and fall over, then harvest and cure bulbs in a dry, airy location. With proper care, these seeds will reward you with a bountiful crop of sweet, white pearl onions.
