Depending on variety of onion, you cultivate them in tropical, sub-tropical and even temperate climate. 13-24 degree Celsius is good for vegetative phase.
For one hectare of land 10 kilograms of seed treated with beejamrit is required. Sow seeds in line at an optimum distance of 60 mm. 35 to 50 days after sowing transplant them.

While planting maintain spacing within row to row of 20 centimetres और 12 cm between plant to plant. Sow at 1/4 inches depth.
Give light irrigation immediately after transplanting or sowing seeds. Irrigating the field at an interval of 7 to 10 days is ideal. Add jeevamrut or Sanjeevak with irrigation water.
