| SCIENTIFIC NAME | Allium fistulosum |
| CULTURE | Seed can be sown in early spring for summer use, and in July or August for fall and spring use. Bunching onions prefer a soil with a pH of 6.2–6.8. Extra-hardy varieties will normally survive the winter if the soil is well drained. |
| DIRECT SEEDING | Sow ¼" apart in rows of 2–3" wide bands,¼–½" deep. Thin to about an inch apart only if large diameter is needed. Keep well cultivated so that plants receive maximum light. |
| TRANSPLANTING | Sow 6–8 seeds per cell in 72-cell trays at the same time you would seed bulbing onions for transplant. Transplant seedling clusters 6–8" apart in rows 18" apart. For Negi-style scallions with a thicker blanched portion, start in flats. Then, beginning in late spring, when 8–18" tall and pencil-thick, transplant outdoors 6" apart, rows 24" apart in holes dibbled about 6" deep. Only 1–2" of leaves need extend above the soil surface. Do not firm soil — allow irrigation or rain to fill in the dibble hole. |
| BLANCHING | During the growing period hill the plants with soil 2 or 3 times, higher with each hoeing. This forces the leaves higher up the plant resulting in extra-long blanched stalks and a much greater edible portion. When using the "dibble method", hilling is reduced or eliminated. |
| HARVEST | Loosen with fork or underminer and gather. Wash, hydrocool, and hold at near freezing until shipped or displayed. |
| AVG. DIRECT SEEDING RATE | 1 oz./250', 4 oz./1,000', 1 lb./4,000', 7½ lb./acre at 50 seeds/ft. in 2" wide bands 18" apart. |
| SEED SPECS | SEEDS/LB.: Avg. 150,300. |
| PACKET | 500 seeds, sows 10'. |
