ONION
Salad Red

This exceptional onion has 2-3" torpedo-shaped bulbs with red skin and tight red flesh. Perfect for slicing into a salad. Moderately spicy. Can be harvested early like scallions.

Days to germination: 10-21
Days to harvest: 85
Planting depth: 1/4"

Suggestions: Fertile, moist soil enriched with compost is best for onion production. Onions ward off many insect pests around lettuce, cabbage and carrots. Use thinnings for green onions.
