  1. Choose a container for planting

It turns out that the onion is a plant that is quite unique and different from most other plants. Because planting onions, you do not need a large area. You can plant in the yard of the house by using pots. And some ways to choose pots for onion cultivation are:

Pick pots with holes
The hole in the pot is very vital. No need to worry that the ground you put in the pot will come out of the existing hole underneath. The function of this hole is as the water circulation so that every time the plants we planted watered, the soil in pots that do not contain excessive water that potentially damage the plant.

Pot type
There are two types of pots. There are placed on the floor and some are hung. If you choose a hanging pot, that must be considered is the weight of the pot. Especially when the pot just watered. Water will add weight from the pot. And if the pot is not strong, the pot can be broken because it is not strong to withstand the weight.

There are several ingredients commonly used to make pots with different functions. Such as pots made of plastic which is a pot that is quite cheap in terms of price. But sometimes the pot of plastic is sleek and quite dazzling eyes if exposed to direct sunlight.

In addition there are also pots made of ceramic and concrete that can maintain soil moisture for plants that require high humidity. Then there is also a pot with wood and clay base material suitable for use during the rainy season because it can keep the moisture of the soil inside. But the shortage of pots made of wood and clay is easily damaged.

The last thing to watch out for is the size. The size of the pot should adjust the plant and area of ​​the existing place. If you want to plant an onion, the pot used does not need to be too big. Even if there is already a big one, you can plant 2-3 seeds in one pot to make the place more efficient
