The Onions Cultivating

Like I told you before, besides planting cabbage, I'm currently planting onions on my farm.

Cutaneous onion varieties This time consisted of two types from two different regions.

The first variety which has now entered its tenth day since planting is a type of local onion originating from Brebes, Central Java, Indonesia, in general this variety uses tubers as seeds.

Bulbs that will be used as seeding have gone through a series of processes and certain treatments, for at least two months, so that the onion dormancy period is fulfilled and deserves to be seeded, excess seeds of this type, faster harvest period, lack of susceptible to fungal attack and other diseases.

While some of the other land I planted with onion seeds originating from seeds, the variety I chose This time is the Maserati TSS which originally originated from the Netherlands

It's a bit complicated if we use seeds from seeds, because before the planting process, the onion seeds must be seeded first, the time needed for this seeding process reaches 35-40 days to reach the ideal size of seeds that are ready to be planted in the development area, but even though it takes time And more attention when seeding seeds, onions whose seeds come from seeds are far more immune to attacks of diseases and fungi that often bring disaster to Onion farmers, not infrequently farmers experience heavy losses due to fungal attacks.

Furthermore, for the treatment process there is no significant difference between the seeds from the bulbs and the seeds from the seeds. And the harvest period from the start of planting is also almost the same, which is around 55-65 days after planting.
Another difference is from the price of seeds, seeds from tubers are far more expensive, but win at the age of cultivation, while seeds from seeds are much cheaper and affordable, but require a longer cultivation time, because before planting on cultivation land, seedlings must be first .

In general, growing onions is a profitable investment, because the need for these commodities will continue to grow, as population increases in this world, which will automatically increase the amount of consumption of onions, as well as other agricultural commodities.

If you also want to plant onions, please select seeds that suit your abilities and conditions, each of which has different strengths and weaknesses.

Let's keep innovating, never be afraid to try something new, because success can come from a direction we never expected
