Cultivation method of the White van Lisbon spring onions?

Sow White van Lisbon spring onions seeds from March to May directly in the garden in rows with a mutual row distance of approximately 15cm. Thin out slightly after about 6 weeks, as the spring onions develop quite a lot of branches and leaves.

Choose a sunny and warm location where the soil does not get too wet. Keep the soil sufficiently moist during cultivation.

Using crop rotation with spring onions?

Spring onions belong to the garlic family, so keep a crop rotation to prevent diseases and pests caused by nematodes and fungi. Plant onion-like only once every 5-6 years on the same plot. Remember that garlic, leeks, shallots, welsh onions and leeks are also onion-like.

Onions combine very well with carrots, so-called good neighbors. Two common pests repel each other, namely the carrot fly and the onion fly. So, for example, sow alternately a row of carrots and onions (spring onions).

When will White van Lisbon harvest spring onions?

Harvest spring onions from July to September as soon as the onions have a diameter of 2 to 3 cm. Only harvest the spring onions you need, because the spring onions have a limited shelf life after harvest.
