Onion Zelenetz is a super-early variety of onion intended for growing greenery. It forms a small bulb and a bunch of juicy, aromatic greens with a mild semi-sharp taste. The length of the feather reaches from 20 to 40 cm, which makes it convenient for use in salads and hot dishes. The variety is tolerant to downy mildew, which increases its resistance to diseases and contributes to a stable harvest. Onions are harvested as early as 60-65 days after germination, and greens can be dried and frozen for long-term storage.
To obtain early and high-quality greens, onion Zelenetz seeds are recommended to be sown in April or May. The plant withstands cold well and can be grown in light greenhouses, which allows obtaining a yield as early as June-July. The more fertile the soil, the thicker, juicier, and softer the stems and leaves become. Seeds are treated with stimulants and fertilizers, which ensures rapid germination and a good start to growth.
Onion Zelenetz is widely used both in home gardening and in commercial agriculture thanks to its high yield and useful properties. Greens are rich in vitamins and trace elements, which makes them a valuable product for human and animal nutrition. When growing, it is important to observe the correct sowing dates, provide sufficient lighting, and maintain optimal soil moisture to achieve the best results.
