| Onion Harvesting & Storing Tips: |
| 1. Harvest onions when the tops have flopped over and gone brown in Summer. |
| 2. Lift out crop and leave onions to dry for approx 1-2 weeks or inside on a |
| sunny windowsill if wet outside. |
| 3. To clean onions rub off bits of dired skin and remove stems. |
| 4. Discard any onions that are damaged or diseased. |
| 5 .Store dry onions in onion nets in a cool, dry ventilated place away from direct |
| sunlight or frost. |
| 6. Never store onions near potatoes, which give off moisture as well as a gas that |
| makes onions spoil more quickly. |
| 7. Stronger flavoured onions last longer in storage than sweet onions. |
Please note these nets are currently only available in the colour red
