Onion planting in 2020: calendar

In order to get a rich harvest of high-quality and tasty onions, you must follow the generally accepted rules for planting it and follow the lunar calendar. Since ancient times and today, people working with the earth have been guided by the phases of the celestial body, which affects the growth of plants. The sowing calendar of favorable and unfavorable days will differ from year to year, since it depends on the movement of the moon. Therefore, before performing onion sowing in 2020, you should check with the current lunar calendar and use the most favorable periods for this crop.

Landing periods

Onions can be grown for greens or turnips. To do this, you can use seeds or small onion sets. Seeds can be planted immediately in the soil or sown in pots to obtain seedlings. Garden work with this crop should be started when the weather is warm and the risk of night frost is reduced. Onion is not a weak plant. Even seeds are not afraid of cold night temperatures (+ 1 ... + 5C), and seedlings can survive small frosts (-1 ... -3C). However, prolonged cold weather can ruin the entire crop.

In the central part of Russia, onions can be planted in the ground in mid-April - early May. This is the most optimal period. You can start growing seedlings from seeds in pots at home or in greenhouses for further transplanting the plant into the ground from mid-February.

Note. It should be borne in mind that after sowing seeds, onions will need to be transplanted into the soil after 50-60 days.

If the main goal is to grow onion greens, then this can be done at home all year round. From ripe onion or sevka, onion feathers turn out much faster than from seeds. However, in the second case, the stems will be softer and more tender. To get full onions in one season, use onion sets. It can be bought at a store or market, or grown independently. Small onions are planted in warm soil in April, and in September mature large bulbs are obtained.

To obtain an early crop, onion-bucking (sevc with a diameter of less than 1 cm) of frost-resistant varieties is used. He is planted in the winter. He tolerates cold well and is gaining enough strength in the spring to resist pests such as onion flies. As a result, you can dig out the ripe fruits already in the middle of the summer season.

To achieve good results when growing onions, regardless of the month, you must follow the lunar calendar, choosing a favorable day. In this case, it is necessary to decide what the result is required as a result: lush onion feathers or a dense large turnip.
