    I sprouted green onions from the store and now they are massive over 2 feet tall and have the flower stalks!

    Thank you, Travis! I've got a small onion patch in my backyard garden this year, and I'm steady following your advice! I'm currently looking for a more rural home where I can have a much larger garden area - That's my goal this year. Once I have more area to garden, I'll be investing in a drip-tape system, for sure!

    Thanks to the guidance you and Greg have provided along with drip tape and 20-20-20 fertilizer, the injector and Dixondale onion sets my onion crop is by far the best I've ever grown. I'm at the 9-10 leave stage. Can't wait until harvest.....

    Can you let the bulb fully mature before harvesting the onion and the spring onion? Sounds like the best ROI. 2 for 1.

    • @gardeningwithhoss
      @gardeningwithhoss  4 роки тому +1

      Depends on your soil and the amount of rain you receive. Clay soils retain better than sandy ones. In our sandy soils, we'll water them every other day assuming no rainfall.

    I bought green onion sets and it said to plant as close together as you can. I planted in mid May and it’s the last week I’m June. The greens look good, but I just got pulled one out of the ground and it still looks similar to the bulb I planted. Should I thin them out???

    This may be a very silly question, but I am growing some green onions. I have found that a few of my onions have really taken off in a matter of days, but the seed has grown out of the ground. They're continuing to grow at a rapid pace so is this...normal? First time growing green onions so it's all new to me.

    • @gardeningwithhoss
      @gardeningwithhoss  4 роки тому +1

      That is normal. With onions, the seed casing will often be attached to the first stems. It will fall off at some point -- nothing to worry about.

      @@gardeningwithhoss I have another question to pick your brain with. I have some very wonderful green onion sprouts, thin, wispy about 3 weeks old roughly. I have them in a shallow, but not super shallow, long potting container and they sprouted, grew up straight and strong, but for the past 3 days have been limpy. They don't appear to be dead, they are still vibrant green, look healthy, but again, they don't stand up straight. I haven't changed anything, they get lots of sun, temperature is perfect, soil has worked miraculously with all my plants, so...is this normal or am I missing something? Thanks again for all you're help!

      You may not be growing the right varieties. Make sure your growing a short-day, intermediate-day or long-day variety based on your region.

    How do you store the green onions if you pull them all at once

    • @gardeningwithhoss
      @gardeningwithhoss  5 років тому +1

      We don't pull them all at once, just as we need them. We cut the ends with scissors about halfway down the greenery and put them in a grocery-store style vegetable bag. They store in the fridge really well this way.

      Depends, if you pull and eat them as spring onions, should be 1 1/2 to 2 inches. If you leave them till they bulb, they will be longer.

      Yellowing is usually one of two things ... two much water or not enough nutrients.
