Spanish Sweet White Onions: Mild, Crisp, and Perfect for Fresh Eating
Spanish Sweet White onions are a gardener's favorite for those who prefer mild, sweet onions over sharp varieties. These long-day onions produce large, tender bulbs with a delicate flavor that's perfect for fresh eating, grilling, and cooking. If you want onions that are gentle on the palate and versatile in the kitchen, Spanish Sweet White is an excellent choice.
Why Choose Spanish Sweet White Onions
Spanish Sweet White onions are prized for their mild, sweet flavor and crisp texture. Unlike pungent storage onions, these varieties are bred for tenderness and sweetness, making them ideal for eating raw in salads, on sandwiches, or grilled whole. The white skin and pale interior give them an elegant appearance, and their large size means fewer onions needed for most recipes.
These long-day varieties thrive in northern climates and regions with longer growing seasons. They're reliable producers that develop substantial bulbs when given proper care and adequate day length to trigger bulb formation.
Planting Spanish Sweet White Onions
Spanish Sweet White onions are long-day varieties, making them ideal for northern gardeners. Plant sets or transplants in early spring as soon as soil can be worked. These onions need full sun and well-draining soil enriched with compost or aged manure. Space plants 4 to 6 inches apart to allow room for bulb development.
Water consistently throughout the growing season, providing about 1 inch per week. Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Feed with a balanced fertilizer or one formulated for onions to support healthy bulb development.
Growing and Harvesting
Spanish Sweet White onions typically mature in about 100 to 120 days from transplanting. As bulbs develop, you'll notice the characteristic white papery skin forming. Stop watering once the tops begin to yellow and fall over, which signals the bulbs are ready to harvest.
Harvest when foliage has completely dried and fallen. Cure onions in a warm, dry location with good air circulation for 2 to 3 weeks before storing. Properly cured Spanish Sweet White onions store reasonably well, though they're best enjoyed fresh. Use them raw in salads, slice them for grilling, or incorporate them into your favorite cooked dishes for their signature mild sweetness.

OUR PLEDGE TO YOU
Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.
For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.
We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.
We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds. We don't touch that stuff and we never will.
The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center.
Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated). Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.
To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.
