Allium cepa
The flavour of Pacific 22 is mild. If it is left to mature, little bulbs start that make great pickling onionsto form. Harvest early for "spring onions". These plants have a vigorous root system and are resistant to many foliar diseases. Protect overwintering plants under a cloche. Matures in 65 days. (open pollinated seeds)
Scallions are a year-round crop. For an extra early crop, start as
transplants, sowing 5-10 seeds per container, and set the whole clump
into the garden 10cm (4") apart to produce instant bunches! From April
on, seed .5-1cm (1/4-1/2") apart in short rows. Add more rows as
needed, planting into August for fall and winter.
