🧅 How to Grow Red Onions in Containers
🌱 What You’ll Need
Container: At least 10–12 inches deep with good drainage holes

Soil: Loose, well-draining compost-rich soil (pH 6.0–7.0)

Red onion sets or seeds: Sets are easier and faster for beginners

Sunny location: Onions need 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily

Watering can or hose: For consistent moisture

🏗️ Step-by-Step Growing Guide
1. Prepare the Container
Choose a wide pot or trough to allow spacing between bulbs.

Fill with high-quality potting mix enriched with compost.

2. Planting
If using sets: Push them into the soil about 1 inch deep, pointy end up.

If using seeds: Sow them ¼ inch deep and thin them out once seedlings appear.

Space each bulb or seed about 4 inches apart.

3. Watering
Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.

Water deeply once or twice a week, more often in hot weather.

4. Feeding
Use a balanced liquid fertiliser every 2–3 weeks.

Avoid high-nitrogen fertilisers—they encourage leaf growth over bulb development.

5. Maintenance
Remove weeds and check for pests like onion flies or aphids.

Rotate the container occasionally for even sun exposure.

6. Harvesting
Onions are ready when the tops yellow and flop over.

Stop watering and let them cure in the container for a few days.

Pull them out gently and let them dry in a warm, airy place for 1–2 weeks.

🌟 Tips for Success
Start in early spring for a summer harvest.

Mulch the surface to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Store harvested onions in a cool, dry place—away from potatoes!
