Short-Day Varieties


> Intermediate-Day Varieties
> Long-Day Varieties

Short Day onions start the bulbing process when day length reaches 10-12 hours. Since they are planted in the south during the winter or early spring months, they take approximately 110 days to mature. When planted in northern states in late spring, they mature in just 75 days, but produce smaller bulbs. The earlier you plant them, the larger they get.
