Cultivation The Valencian Temprana Onion is suitable for different types of soil, provided it is well-drained and rich in organic matter. For best results: Sowing: Sow directly in the open field from February to March in central and southern Italy, or in a protected seedbed (for later transplanting) in the north. Maintain a distance of about 10-15 cm between plants and 25-30 cm between rows. Exposure: Prefers full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day. Watering: Requires regular watering, especially during dry periods and during the bulb growth phase. Avoid waterlogging. Soil: Prefers loose, fertile, and well-drained soil. Care: Weed regularly to eliminate weeds that can compete with the young plants. Harvesting: Onions will be ready for harvest when the leaves begin to yellow and dry, curling to the ground. This usually occurs between July and September. Leave the bulbs to dry in the open air for a few days before storing them in a cool, dry place.
