A note from PlantMom
Early onion shows strong resistance to disease and is generally unlikely to develop illnesses. As for care, the plant is fairly low-maintenance. When grown outdoors it needs only minimal watering, and larger plants typically do not require pruning. Smaller plants, however, should be pruned after they have finished blooming. Early oniont is suitable for anyone with outdoor space, such as a garden or a deck, and does not demand extensive care experience.
