ONION 
Sow 3 pounds of seed in seed-bed to plant an acre, or plant 5 pounds of seed per acre in field 
Culture. First plantings are made the first of September and continued until March. October and November are the best months to 
plant. In Florida the seed is generally planted in the open field, where the onions are to grow, in rows 15 inches apart, and when 
4 to 5 inches high they are thinned out to 3 to 4 inches apart in the drill. Those taken out can be used to transplant any possible 
skips. Onion seed can also be planted in seed-beds and transplanted to the field later. This is a safe and sure method, and is becoming 
very popular in Florida. Transplanting generally produces less splits and more first grade onions.
