How to fertiliser your onion plants in the garden

Onions do not require a great deal of fertiliser.    However the addition of animal manures such as cow, sheep and chicken manure when preparing the bed will assist in strong growth.    A short time after planting your onions use some general purpose NPK granular fertiliser.   If your onions are not developing well you may have to provide a little extra fertiliser during the growing season.    Onions also respond well to liquid fertilisers this needs to be done every two weeks.    The use of a good seaweed based liquid fertiliser with NPK will assist in good growth.
