Store under cool, dry conditions. Dry onions grown from sets should keep until late winter. Several cultivars are used for onion sets. All of these cultivars are very well adapted to Arkansas conditions. Divide the sets into two sizes before planting.
Most gardeners prefer white sets for green onions, although red or brown sets are also acceptable.
Sprouting when bulbs are refrigerated. Do not wait more than a Beek after this occurs. Allow for thorough drying before storage. For fresh storage, maintain good air circulation. One effective storage method is to place onion in discarded hose, tie a knot and add another onion.
