These onions are perfect for fresh eating, pickling, or adding to a variety of dishes due to their mild, non-pungent taste. Read the packet directions before starting and keep the label so the variety remains clearly identified throughout the season. For practical seed starting, growing from seed succeeds best when the verified product depth, moisture and temperature guidance is followed.

Start indoors 10-12 weeks before transplanting date. Trim to 1” when it reaches 5” to increase thickness. 1/8-1/4″ 10-25°C 6 to 12 days Prepare a clean, loose, well-drained growing medium and moisten it before placing the seeds so they are not displaced by the first watering. Keep the seedbed evenly moist without standing water because excess moisture reduces air around developing roots. Move seedlings into bright light as soon as they emerge and rotate containers regularly to encourage balanced growth. Where several seedlings compete for the same space, thin carefully and retain the strongest plants without disturbing their roots. Use the product details as a clear guide on how to start seeds while keeping the growing medium evenly moist, never saturated. For indoor seed starting, count back from local conditions and frost dates to decide when to start indoor seeds.

When tops dry up and fall over harvest for storage variety. Cure for 3-5 days in the fields. Alternatively, cure in greenhouse at 23-26°C and 80% humidity. Brassicas, Carrot, Tomato, Lettuce, Beet, Parsnip, Chamomile, Rose, Strawberry. The packet contains 100 seeds. Water at soil level when the surface begins to dry, then adjust frequency for weather, drainage, and container volume. A light mulch can reduce splashing and moisture swings after the soil has warmed and plants are established.

Where several seedlings compete for the same space, thin carefully and retain the strongest plants without disturbing their roots. Before outdoor planting, gradually acclimatize young plants to wind, sunlight, and changing temperatures over several days. Follow the stated spacing so air can move between plants and each plant receives adequate light, water, and nutrients.

Frequently asked questions

01 How many 'Bianca Di Maggio' Onions seeds are in the packet?
For Bianca Di Maggio Onions, the packet information states: Approximately 100 seeds · lot GO24110 · germination >85%. This wording preserves the commercial approximation when one is provided and helps plan the number of containers or the length of the row without turning an estimate into a guaranteed count. Keep the packet closed in a cool, dry, dark place until sowing time. Keep the label with the seedlings so the variety remains correctly identified throughout the season. Use clean containers and write the sowing date on a water-resistant label. Avoid exposing unused seed to moisture or large temperature swings.
02 How should I start 'Bianca Di Maggio' Onions seeds in Canada?
For Bianca Di Maggio Onions, start indoors 10-12 weeks before transplanting date. Trim to 1” when it reaches 5” to increase thickness. The recommended method is propagation by seed, at a depth of 3 to 6 mm (1/8-1/4″). Follow these product-specific directions and adjust timing to the average last-frost date in your area. Moisten the growing medium before placing the seed so the first watering does not displace it. Label every container and maintain even moisture without allowing standing water. Move seedlings into bright light as soon as they emerge to encourage balanced growth. Thin carefully when several seedlings compete for the same space. For seed starting, label the cultivar and use the stated sowing depth instead of a generic estimate.
03 How long do 'Bianca Di Maggio' Onions seeds take to germinate?

When growing from seed, keep conditions stable for the full stated germination window before disturbing the mix.
