Spooned last season, and it really helped. The only thing is you have to be careful and keep the tops trimmed back a little bit so the wind doesn't topple the plant over with the loss of support. But I think this is why my onions were the size of softballs. Thanks for the great tip.

About when should you spoon them?
@EasyGardenHacks Жыл бұрын
Hi Jordan, I would spoon them once they are established (if you are transplanting seedling you want them to be stable and strong). I would just make sure I do it before the bulb starts to increase in size but not so early that they fall over. Thanks for watching and the question.

You did not spoon the onion. You use your fingers
@EasyGardenHacks2 жыл бұрын
Thanks art, correct I also will use my fingers, some dont like the dirt under the finger nails so spoon is perfect.
