Yellow Granex Hybrid F1 Growth Habits:

Yellow Granex Hybrid seeds produce white bulbs with yellow skin that grow as large as 4" to 5" in diameter. The green tops will grow as tall as 36" that will yellow and begin to flop over when the bulbs are mature, which is typically 110 to 160 days after planting.

These short-day onions will begin to bulb after the daylength reaches 10 hours. Because they are a short-day variety, Granex Yellow onions thrive in Southern zones of the United States.

Onions do well when they are planted in well-draining soil that is rich with nutrients. They also benefit from good weed control.

Various Uses for Yellow Granex Onions:

Yellow Granex onions are a popular choice for eating fresh because of their mild, sweet flavor. When cooked, the sweet flavor of these Vidalia onions is enhanced. The mild flavor pairs well with meat and vegetable dishes.
