Albion — a medium-maturing onion variety with a period from emergence to leaf fall of 90-120 days. This variety is characterized by white bulbs and is recommended for annual cultivation. Sowing seeds for seedlings is carried out in March, and transplanting seedlings into open ground — at the beginning of May, allowing for a high-quality harvest at optimal times. Albion bulbs are round, dense, with white scales, giving them an attractive appearance and high product quality.
The bulb formation period is about 6-6.5 weeks, ensuring timely maturity and the possibility of obtaining a stable yield. The variety is suitable for fresh consumption, as well as for storage and drying. Due to its high disease resistance, Albion demonstrates good preservation and resilience during cultivation, reducing the risk of yield loss.
For optimal growth, it is recommended to follow a planting scheme of 5-7 cm apart, spaced 10-15 cm apart. The market yield when grown from seeds reaches 1.5-2 kg per square meter, making this variety attractive for both private gardens and commercial cultivation. The high quality of bulbs and their versatility make Albion a profitable choice for gardeners and farmers.
