The methods and steps for growing green onions are: before planting, planting, and after planting.

1. Before planting

Before planting green onions, you must first separate the large and small seedlings, and then remove the sick and weak seedlings. When planting, you can arrange the green onion leaves vertically to the cultivated plot for dense planting and easier management.

2. Planting

When planting, you must first dig a shallow hole, perpendicular to the ground, and plant on the same side of the onion ditch. This is to facilitate drainage during the rainy season.

3. After planting

Remember to compact the loose soil on both sides of the green onion plant and then water it thoroughly.

Time to plant green onions:

1. Autumn planting

Generally speaking, sowing is done in early September of the first autumn, and in May of the second year. Planting is carried out in early to mid-month and harvested before winter.

2. Spring planting

In early spring, you can sow seeds after the soil thaws.

3. Summer sowing

Summer sowing is usually from late July to early August every year, also known as Fu Cong.

Conditions for growing green onions:

1. Soil

The pH value of the soil for planting green onions is 6.5 to 7.5, which can be controlled about 10 to 15 days before planting. Moisture in the soil prevents lodging from occurring.

2. Fertilizer

Fertilizing green onions requires a balanced application of phosphorus, potassium, and nitrogen fertilizers. In the early stage of growth, the demand for nitrogen fertilizers is mainly high, and in the later stage, the demand for phosphorus and potassium fertilizers is greater.

3. Temperature

Green onions have good stress resistance and are resistant to both cold and heat.

4. Water

The root system of green onions is more afraid of waterlogging. High temperature and high humidity will easily cause death.

5. Lighting

Green onions only require moderate sunlight intensity. Strong light will cause quality degradation.
