2. Seed Selection: Choose high-quality Yellow Sweet Spanish Utah onion seeds from our web store, www.ezyseeds.com. We offer reliable seeds with excellent germination rates.

3. Germination: Onion seeds do not require stratification. They germinate best in temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C).

4. Sowing Seeds: Select a sunny location in your garden with well-draining soil. Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date or sow them directly into the garden soil when the soil temperature reaches around 50°F (10°C). Plant the seeds about ¼ inch deep, spacing them 1 inch apart in rows that are 12-18 inches apart.

5. Moisture and Cover: Keep the soil evenly moist during the germination period. You can cover the seeded area with a thin layer of straw or compost to retain moisture and protect the seeds.

6. Temperature and Light: Onions require full sun exposure for optimal growth. Make sure they receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.

7. Watering: Onions need consistent moisture but avoid overwatering, as it can lead to fungal diseases. Water deeply when the soil feels dry, ensuring the water reaches the roots.

8. Transplanting: If you started seeds indoors, transplant the seedlings to the garden when they are around 4-6 inches tall and have developed a few sets of true leaves.

9. Soil Preparation: Prior to transplanting or sowing seeds, prepare the soil by removing weeds, loosening the soil, and incorporating organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure.

10. Planting: Plant the onion seedlings or direct-sown seeds into well-prepared soil, spacing them 4-6 inches apart in rows that are 12-18 inches apart.

11. Watering and Mulching: Water the plants regularly to keep the soil

evenly moist. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the plants to help conserve moisture and suppress weed growth.

12. Care and Maintenance: Keep the onion bed weed-free by regular weeding. Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilization, as it can lead to excessive foliage growth instead of bulb development. Provide support to the plants if needed.

13. Thinning: If the onions are overcrowded, thin them by gently pulling out the smaller seedlings to give enough space for the remaining onions to grow and develop bulbs.

14. Fertilization: Onions benefit from a balanced fertilizer application. Apply a nitrogen-rich fertilizer once every 3-4 weeks during the growing season, following the package instructions for proper dosage.

15. Harvesting: Yellow Sweet Spanish Utah onions are ready for harvest when the tops start to turn yellow and fall over. Gently lift the bulbs from the soil using a garden fork, being careful not to damage them. Allow the harvested onions to dry in a warm, well-ventilated area for a few weeks before storing them.
