Harvesting Onions for Storage

peter_6
16 years ago

1. Should I harvest an onion as soon as the leaves fall over? If I leave them and harvest later will the bulbs grow any more?

2. Should I braid the leaves for storage immeditely after harvest? Or should I let the leaves of harvested onions dry out before braiding?

3. Is there a recommended teatment for growing onions that would make the bulbs swell? I use kelp emulsion, sea minerals, and liquid silica on them just as I do with all vegetables.

Any advice on these issues or, indeed, any related issues would be most welcome. Regards, Peter.
