Do I need to water the onions after planting
Some gardeners believe that after planting, onions need to be watered, and so that the seedlings were in the "swamp" conditions and was practically floating in water. Others believe that watering is unnecessary, or even harmful to the growth and development of vegetables. However, I want to remind you that any plant for normal development of the necessary moisture, the bow is no exception. At the same time this vegetable is in excess of water in the soil can easily rot, so to fill the plants is not necessary.
If you just plant onions and not know whether to water it or not, you have two options: if you before planting the garden shed with water, in this case the irrigation is missing, if the pouring is not carried out, water the seedlings is necessary, and so that no water gets on the bulbs.
Do I need to water the onions in July and August
If Luke has a well developed root system, then the need for irrigation depends solely on the weather. In the month of July often there are droughts, the rains are absent more than seven consecutive days, the temperature reaches over 25 degrees Celsius. Under these conditions, moisture from the soil evaporates and the plants it is not enough, which negatively affects their development, so watering a bow, most often, simply necessary.
If July is not poor rains, then pour the onion unnecessary. As for August, this month rarely skimp on precipitation, and given the fact that the rapid growth of the onion is the end of July, the watering of these plants in the last month of summer you can not carry out.
Remember, in hot dry weather onions need to be watered once every five days, if the rain comes at least once a week, that is, refrain from watering, otherwise you can not avoid Fusarium vegetables.
