It is important to note that farming onions in a greenhouse is not economically viable. However, onions can be grown in the green house for the purpose of crop rotation , intercropping and companion planting.
Onions act as a good rotational crop to tomatoes and capsicum . They take 3 months after transplanting to mature. So as to fully utilize the space in a greenhouse, we recommend an inter-plant spacing of 7.5cm and inter-row spacing of 20cm .
If the drip irrigation set up in your farm has 30cm emitter spacing ,we recommend planting four onions round each emitter. If you would like us to help you in determining the onion plant population for your greenhouse, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will recommend the variety ,quantity needed and you can purchase the seedlings from us.
