Fall is the time to harvest your onions. Look for onions that have fully matured and their tops have begun to dry and fall over. Harvesting at the right time ensures optimal flavor and storage. Cut the tops off the onions, leaving about an inch of stem attached. After harvesting, cure your onions in a well-ventilated area. This allows the onions to dry completely, preventing rot and spoilage. Ensure proper air circulation to prevent moisture buildup. Store the onions in a cool, dry place for long-term storage. Proper curing and storage techniques are essential for maintaining the quality and flavor of your onions. Curing allows the onions to develop their full flavor and texture. Proper storage will help maintain the freshness and quality of your onions for months to come. Follow these tips for a successful fall onion harvest.
