AlliumAllium fistulosum x cepa

- Vegetables
- 4" spacing

Overview
Our recommendation for the early slot. Reduced bulbing results in a more refined end product and upright leaves allow for easier cultivation and cleaner harvests. Compared to Guardsman, Dash is quicker to mature, more upright, and less likely to form bulbs under stress. For overwintering, we recommend 'Marksman'. Dash is prone to bolting when overwintered.
Planting
Transplant seedlings 4-6 weeks old into garden in early spring; direct sow seeds for summer/fall harvest
Growing
Sun: partial. Water: high. Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil with moderate organic matter. Space plants 4" apart. Germination: 7-10 days.
