Onion Gladalan 100 Seeds

Deep globe, up to 15cm diameter and weight of 0.75kg in rich soil. Small neck, shiny straw brown skin. White medium-firm flesh, good mild flavour. Light green foliage. Has some resistant to thrips, long day, heavy yielder, fair keeper.

Onions come in a range of colours and shapes and sizes. Brown :- strong flavour and pungent. Usually good keepers for storage. White :- milder but still flavoursome. Keep fairly well. Red :- Mild, suitable to use raw in salads and sandwiches. The seedlings should be allowed to gain a bit of strength before planting out - usually 4 to 6 weeks will be enough. When they are big enough to handle, you can plant out. They start off looking like blades of grass.

They don't have to be in a greenhouse (though that would be ideal), any sheltered spot will do. The idea is to guard against rapid changes of temperature, especially at night.
