How long is the growth cycle of green onions?

Introduction to the growth of green onions

Green onions have strong adaptability to the environment and soil and can be planted all year round. They are grown all over the country, with Shandong, Hebei, Henan and other provinces being important production areas.

Green onion growth cycle

Growth characteristics of green onions: Green onions like a cool environment, which is good for increasing yields. The suitable temperature is between 13 and 25 degrees. They are drought-resistant but afraid of waterlogging. Therefore, when watering, it is necessary to avoid water accumulation and do a good job of drainage. The requirements for sunlight are not very strict.

Green onions are usually planted around April and transplanted in June.

Onion growth rate

The growth and development process of green onions mainly goes through four stages: green onion germination stage, green onion seedling stage, green onion white formation stage and green onion dormancy stage.

Green onions grow fast and can be planted in spring from February to March and harvested in June.

Green onion growth cycle management

The yield of green onions per mu has a lot to do with the environment of the planting area. If the harvest is good, the yield per mu can reach tens of thousands of kilograms.

Temperature management: The suitable temperature for the growth of green onions is 20 to 25 degrees. The ambient temperature cannot be lower than 10 degrees, so as not to enter the dormant stage prematurely and make it difficult to grow. When the temperature is 35-40℃, the plants will easily wilt.

Fertilization management: Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are indispensable during the entire growth process of green onions. On this basis, a small amount of calcium fertilizer, magnesium fertilizer, etc. can also be applied, which can increase the yield of green onions.
