Plant shallot Mikor 500gr

Planting shallot Mikor is done in March-April and can be harvested in July-August. The recommended minimum planting distance is 10 cm in the rows and 20-25 cm between the rows. This yellow, medium length shallot has excellent cooking quality, moderate earliness, nice yield and very long storage life. This shallot is delivered in a net.

Tip: Shallots prefer to grow in the sun, in a warm place. Shallots also grow on almost all types of soil with a good structure, but preferably on a soil of fertile, loose, humus-rich soil that retains moisture, but sufficiently permeable.

If the soil is well maintained, fertilizing is not really necessary. If you do need to add some fertilizer, do not use a nitrogen-rich fertilizer (such as farmyard manure) to reduce the risk of diseases such as head rot or mold. Rather, use a potassium-rich fertilizer.

When the foliage of the shallot falls down, the shallots can be grubbed up. Then you let them dry until the foliage is completely dry. You can now remove the foliage and store the shallots in containers in a well-ventilated, dry place. Storing them in the form of a braid is also possible. In this case we braid the leaves of the shallots together with a string. We then hang the braid in a well-ventilated, dry room.

The onion fly is about the only possible problem. Nice to know that if you plant shallots and carrots next to each other, you will find that you are less bothered by both carrot and onion flies. Also for tubers and beets, lettuce and tomatoes make good neighbors. Peas and beans, on the other hand, are to be avoided as neighbors.
