Thompson & Morgan

Dig into the joy of growing with downy mildew-resistant Thompson and Morgan Redlander Onion F1 Seeds, promising a generous harvest of mellow, flavourful red onions that store beautifully and suit both raw and cooked dishes. You'll find each packet contains around 100 seeds, bred for strong performance and big yields of large, round bulbs, making them a reliable choice for any home gardener or allotment plot. With clear sowing instructions included, it's easy to nurture these onions from seed to table, enjoying their quality and resilience every step of the way. Height: 45cm. Spread: 15cm. Direct sow onions outdoors in spring on any firm, well-drained soil in full sun. Sow thinly at a depth of one centimetre and a distance of 30cm between rows. Prepare the planting area several weeks in advance by incorporating some well-rotted garden compost to improve drainage and soil fertility. Avoid planting onions on freshly manured soil. On particularly wet ground, try growing onions in raised beds. When large enough to handle, thin onion seedlings to 10cm apart for medium-sized bulbs, or at a slightly wider spacing if larger bulbs are required. Alternatively, sow onion seed indoors in module trays at a depth of one centimetre, using free-draining, seed sowing compost. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a plastic bag at a temperature of 10-15°C (50-59F) until after germination, which usually takes ten to 14 days. Once germinated, grow onions on in cool conditions until all risk of frost has passed and they are large enough to plant outdoors at a distance of 10cm apart. Cover with a protective netting or fleece to prevent attack from birds and insects. Water the plants thoroughly after planting. Product specifications: Position: Full Sun.
