Galia (Galia) type — relatively new, of Israeli origin, although there are indications that this variety may originate from Spain. The fruits of this type are round or oval, weighing about 1 kg. The surface is smooth, covered with a delicate, connected netting, turning yellow whe...

Onion is very sensitive to day length, so it is very important not to delay sowing and to cultivate varieties and hybrids appropriate for the day length, previously tested in this zone. Growing hybrids not intended for this zone can significantly affect yield, possibly causing pr...

Distinguish two main colors of the onion bulb in cross-section. Specifically, white (possibly greenish-white) and red (pink) color.

The shape of corms is quite diverse and can be flattened, round, and elongated.

Depending on the variety characteristics, the storage period for heads may vary from one month for early varieties to eight months for late cabbage varieties.

Optimal productivity is achieved at a planting density of 4000-5500 plants/ha. Possible planting scheme: 300-500x40-80 cm.

Most existing onion varieties are harvested manually. This is because onion bulbs are very sensitive to mechanical damage. However, there are varieties whose bulbs have a hard consistency and are suitable for mechanical harvesting.

The weight of an onion bulb can reach 500–800 grams at sparse planting.

Vegetation period from emergence to technical maturity 30-50 days.

Existing varieties and types of cabbage are grown for fresh consumption, long-term storage, and technical processing.
