Fall PLOWING for Onions by Herman Kaufman
Herman Kaufman, prominent gardener near Marshfield, reports excellent onion yields by fall plowing and firming soil. He argues surface growth yields onions with small necks and flat bodies, advising shallow harrowing at sowing and firm ground to prevent scilling. His method, tested in several seasons, suggests fall soil preparation improves market onions for growers.
