  • Harvest Maths

    You know how some seed packets state "Time to harvest" ie/ the number of weeks from sowing to harvest.

    I know there are lots of variable but...

    Anyone have any thoughts how to calculate this from sow/harvest diagrams ?

    Take Spring Onion Sentry...

    If first sowing is start of March and first harvest is start August thats 20 weeks.

    It looks like a July sowing will crop in November say 16 weeks.

    I assume the difference is to do with a slow start at the begining of the season.

    Would it be safe to say that average time to harvest is 20 weeks

    Your thoughs please

    Temperature will affect germination time and early growth. Also daylight hours affect growth...things would be in a hurry after the solstice as they realise the season is changing...onions are quite light sensitive...but its usually a rush to but on flowers
