Benefits of Onion Russet F1

Method of Application

Nursery Establishment: Raise seeds in a well-prepared nursery bed or seedling trays for 6–8 weeks. Ensure the soil is fine-tilled and free of weeds.
Transplanting: Move seedlings to the main field when they reach the “pencil-thickness” stage. Recommended spacing is 10cm between plants and 15cm between rows.
Nutrient Management: Apply a phosphorus-rich base fertilizer (like DAP) at planting to encourage root growth. Follow with nitrogen-rich topdressing during the early vegetative stage and potassium-rich fertilizer during bulb swelling.
Water Management: Maintain consistent soil moisture throughout the vegetative phase but gradually reduce watering as the bulbs reach maturity to allow for proper curing.

Usage Precautions

Safety: Always wear suitable gloves when handling treated seeds. Keep out of reach of children and livestock.
Storage: Store Russet F1 seeds in a cool, ventilated and dry warehouse off the ground to preserve high germination vigor.
