Planting Onion Bulbs For Pest Control and Scape-Seeds Production On A Mulched Ground


Planted on: 15 JULY 2022


This video explores the dual benefits of planting onions in your garden! We bought a variety of onions from Chow Kit before (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkiXNfxbN8I&t=2820s). Not only are onions a delicious culinary staple, but they can also act as natural pest deterrents with their sulfurous scent. Additionally, onion scapes, the flowering stalks, can be harvested and enjoyed in various ways.


In this video, you'll learn:

  • The Power of Mulch: Discover how mulching your garden bed helps retain moisture and promote onion growth.

  • Planting for Pest Control: Learn how onions can deter unwanted insects with their natural defenses.

  • Harvesting Onion Scapes: Explore the potential of harvesting and utilizing onion scapes for culinary purposes.

  • Step-by-Step Planting Guide: Follow along as we guide you through the process of prepping, planting, and watering your onions in a mulched bed.
