How to choose ideal Onion Seedlings Transplanter

Why do we Transplant Seedlings ?

Although Onion seeds can germinate at a low temperature of 3-5 ℃, they germinate slowly. When the temperature is above 12℃, the germination speed will be accelerated, and the optimal temperature is 12-20 ℃.

According to the onion response to temperature and light, autumn sowing occurs in the south of the Yangtze River and all parts of North China, and seedlings live through the winter. Whether the sowing time is appropriate or not is directly related to the yield of Onions. If the sowing time is too early in autumn, the seedlings will grow too much before winter, which will lead to the early moss in the next year and affect the yield. On the contrary, if the sowing time is too late and the seedlings are too small before winter, although the onion bolting will not be early, the plants will still be small when the bulbs swell, so the yield will be low.

Therefore, we sow onion seeds in advance. When the right time comes, Transplant Onion Seedling directly seasonable.

What Line space and Seedling space is recommended ?

General speaking,Onion seedling space will be small, thus it can improve yield. The line space 20cm, plant space of 16~17cm is recommended. The density per mu is about 20,000 plants.

How to choose suitable Onion Seedling ?

In order to prevent onion bolting, the leaf sheath diameter should be 6 ~ 7mm, and fresh weight of each plant is 4 ~ 6 grams. The moderate size seedlings can be selected in priority.

Can we transplant 12 lines in one time ?

Yes. Transplant 12 lines in one time will save labor and improve efficiency. Tractor driven Seedling Transplanter from HUAYO AGRO will help you to realize it.

What about Paving mulch and Lay watering pipe ?

For large onion field, we need to lay watering pipe first, and then pave mulch to get rid of weed. If transplant manually, it will cost too much time and labors.
