What are the cultivation methods of deer onion

Open-field cultivation of Allium truncatum

Open-field cultivation is a type of onion cultivation, and it is cultivated in places with higher terrain and good drainage.

Remove the small bulbs from the bulbs of the onion for reproduction, and trim the roots of the main bulb and let it dry before planting. Keep the plant spacing at about 15 cm and cover with soil, making sure the top of the ball is exposed.

Note that for open-field cultivation, it is necessary to apply fertilizers appropriately during cultivation to maintain the growth and flowering of the plants. During the dormant period, the bulbs should be dug out and placed in a greenhouse to dormant. Keep the outdoor temperature around 5℃, dry and ventilated.

Greenhouse Cultivation of Allium truncatum

Greenhouse potted plants of deer onion generally choose bulbs that can bloom after about 3 years of growth. When potted, usually one bulb is planted in a flowerpot, or 3-4 bulbs are planted in a large pot. When planting, it is usually shallow planting, and the bulbs should be exposed above the soil surface.

When potting, be sure to water it to keep it moist, and fertilize it once every half a month. Change the pot in time and water less during the plant's dormant period.

Exposed basket cultivation

Basket cultivation means that bulbs can be planted in one basket, usually 16 bulbs. The deer onion planted in this way is easier to transplant and simpler to maintain. Be sure to weed in time.
