Why Didn't I Think of This
From Melonpopzdropz…. my fb friend Janine posted this link late last nite. I just saw it this morning since Lil Sister kidded under the dually last nite in the nasty storm that rolled thru…
This to me is actually an easier was to propagate onions compared to planting the seeds and then waiting for them to grow enough for seed onion sets for next season. Here’s the content from the link….
Making a bag of onions last forever-
- You will need:
- any onion
- a sharp knife
- board
- pot with some soil
Place the onion base in soil either in the pot or directly into the garden. Make a spot for it and sit it gently down on to the ground with a faerie push.. not hard and gently cover with some soil about enough to cover it 2cm or so. Water well
This step is important and now its time to multiply what you already have. One onion will usually form 2 or more separate plants. You will see this in the base you have dug up.
Make a nice spot for your new baby onions and plant. Once in the ground slice off the green 2/3 of the way down the green. Don’t panic this will be good for the plant and it will grow true strong leaves then.
Food should not be the price it is in shops and controlled by multinational companies. It is FOOD. Take back ownership of at least the onions. This process I have outlined is just one simple way you can at least provide your own family with relatively free onions forever!
Happy Gardening!
Ps Garlic can be planted as simple as well. I will blog that process separately down the track! Just briefly though with the garlic you separate a garlic and plant the pieces in to the ground by sitting the bottom / root end gently on the well prepared ground / don’t cover with dirt..Do then cover with about ten inches of Mulch.. that’s it… no pictures here yet! I will do this soon! No need to panic yet as its too early for planting for optimum! You plant latest of summer just before autumn or fall as some of you may call it! 9mths in the ground.. cut the flowers and pull up a month after the flower chopping!
