Onion Flowering: Major Problem Causing Losses! Learn Easy Tips to Stop It

• Flowering diverts energy from bulb formation, leading to smaller, lighter onions and reduced yield.
• Flowered onions have poor quality, affecting taste, color, and texture, making them less desirable to consumers and lowering market prices.
• These onions cannot be stored long as they rot and sprout quickly; early sale is recommended.
• Premature sowing, nutrient imbalance, irregular irrigation, and weak nursery plants increase bolting.
• Choose low-bolting varieties, sow at the right time, conduct soil tests, and use healthy seedlings for better yield.
