Salad Bunching/Onion Ramrod (AGM)
Vegetable Seeds from Sow Seeds Ltd
Salad Bunching/Onion Ramrod is a distinct salad onion that has proved itself in the marketplace. Very versatile, being used for both spring and autumn production. Ramrod is winter hardy, making it a good variety for drilling in the autumn.
The plants have long white stems, green tops and a mild, sweet taste. They can be grown directly in the ground and also in trays, as deep soil is not required. A crisp and tasty addition for year-round salads.
Ramrod is also winter hardy, making it a good variety for drilling in the autumn. Additionally, it can be used for producing larger, bolder type salad onions, especially if overwintered and left to develop in the early spring.
Salad Onion Ramrod Vegetable Seed Information
| Seed Quantity: | Approx 370 seeds per pack. |
| Site: |
An ideal position would be an open, sunny site with good drainage which has been dug and manured in the previous autumn. Do not plant or sow on a freshly manured bed. |
| When to Sow: |
March to September.
|
| How to Sow: |
Sow thinly 12mm (¬Ωin) deep in either narrow or broad drills allowing 15 to 23cm (6 to 9in) between drills. No thinning is necessary.
The seed germinates over a wide range of temperatures and is faster at higher temperatures. Sow every 3 weeks for continuous crops. |
| Care: |
Keep well watered for best quality crops, especially during spells of dry weather. It will stand well for long periods if kept well watered. Hoe carefully or weed by hand – dense weed growth will seriously affect yield.
Early and late sowings may benefit from cloche protection.
|
| Harvest: | Harvest when pencil-thin. Harvest alternate plants as required, this allows more space for remaining plants to develop. |
