Shallot Planting Information:

Shallots are very close to garlic and are very easy to grow. Shallots are basically a very mild form of garlic. Like garlic, they reproduce by bulb division underground. The green tops grow about 10" tall and can be used like green onions. The seeds should be planted indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the ground can be worked. You can also plant seeds directly in the garden. Spring planting should occur as soon as the soil can be worked. In the South, you can also plant them in the fall for a winter harvest. Shallots stop growing just past mid-summer, so plant them in early spring or fall. Keep free from weeds. Plants can grow 8 to 12" tall.

Soil Requirements:

Requires fertile soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant.

Water Requirements:

Keep seedlings and transplants consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water well during dry and hot spells.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when planting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro every 2 weeks.

Harvest Tips:

Wait until the leaves die off before harvesting. Then spread bulbs on the ground for 3 to 5 days to cure.
