Practical growing tips

This Ishikura onion variety lends itself to several growing methods depending on your space and preferences:

• Sowing and installation: start indoors a few weeks before spring, or sow directly when the soil is workable. Transplant delicately to preserve young plants.
• Exposure and soil: prefer a location in full sun and light, deep, well-drained soil. Soil rich in organic matter promotes healthy bulb development.
• Spacing and thinning: space plants to allow each onion to form without competition, and thin as soon as the leaves begin to twitch to optimize bulb development.
• Watering and mulching: keep the soil regularly moist but not waterlogged. Light mulching helps limit weeds and retains soil moisture.
• Fertilization: apply a moderate amount of balanced fertilizer when transplanting and, during cultivation, favor potassium-rich applications to promote bulb formation.

Harvesting and storage

When the leaves turn slightly yellow and lean, your Ishikura onions are ready for harvest. Dry them in a well-ventilated, dark place for several days, then store them in a dry, cool place to extend their shelf life.
