The shallot bow is similar to the ones, but unlike the latter, is a nesting plant: several subsidiaries are formed from one lows. The shallot bow has a number of advantages: it ripens faster, it is better stored, has a more dense structure. It is not difficult to grow it in the country or on the balcony.
1
The optimal precursors for the bowl of Shalot are beans, peas, beans. Place choose solar, with loose fertile soil (pH 6.0-6.5). At the same place will be able to plant the chalot after 3 years.
2
In the fall, you disappear and support the soil by humus or compost (1 m² - 5 kg), make ash or mineral fertilizers (potassium sulfate, superphosphate). Dropped in spring prepared in the fall, bring nitrogen fertilizers (25 g per 1 m²).
3
Select about 3 cm with a diameter of a diameter of about 3 cm. If they are smaller, it will reduce the harvest, and larger - form a lot of small bulbs. During the week before planting a firing of a bulb near a heat source of 40 ° C. If the bow was stored in the room, you do not need to do. Soak the bulbs for half an hour in a weak mortar solution immediately before landing. If you want to get an early greens, cut the top of the lows on the shoulders, but this will reduce the yield of both the pen and the bulb itself.
4
Sutting off the lows, observe the distance between them 10 cm. Between the rows, leave about 30 cm. Sprinkle on top of a lover at 3 cm. After landing, cover the beds with peat or humus (mulching). If the soil is low fertility, support the bow after the appearance of feathers by manure.
5
After landing, the onions should be regularly watering (stop watering a month before cleaning the bow), pour and loose the soil. If you want to get large lows, after the formation of bulbs (beginning of June), leave about 5-6 major bulbs in the nest. The rest take a break along with the pen, carefully moving the land.
6
When the pen starts to climb and dry dry scales (the end of July), the bow is time to collect. Socket disassemble into separate lows, dry in the shade, then cut the leaves and roots. After that, you can remove for storage in a cool and dry place in mesh bags.
The shallot bow can be frozen, which prevents it from damage. To do this, clean and cut the bulbs, sprinkle with water and put it in the refrigerator in a suitable container. All properties with such freezing onions and pen are saved.
