7. January Not much to do in January. The weeds help to keep the soil cooler.
8. February Late February spray weeds with ‘RoundUp’ or hand weed. New Planting: For a new planting select a site with good soil and protection from the wind and apply agricultural lime at the rate of 370gm per square metre.
9. March Apply some fertilizer on beds. 30% Potassic Super Phosphate at the rate of 38gm per square metre. New Planting: Early March apply 65gm of 15% Potassic Serpentine Super per square metre. This, along with the lime, provides the bulbs with the greatest part of their food
10. April Fork over the beds to keep the soil loose on the surface. New Planting: Early April ‘work up’ the soil ready for planting. This mixes the fertilizer and lime into the soil ready for the roots of the plant to use it.
11. June From now on spears should start to appear. Keep forking the beds carefully when the soil allows.
12. July Towards the end of July spread about 20gm of Sulphate of Potash to the square metre. The bulbs need Potash while in growth and leaches from the soil if not used by the plants .
13. August Keep forking between the rows of bulbs as this allows air to pass into the soil when it rains. If the soil packs down hard this won’t happen.
14. September The bulbs , depending on the variety, will start to flower . Any promising bud stems should be staked and the flowers covered to protect them from sunburn. Flowers can be picked and kept in a fridge at 4˚C for up to three weeks. Towards the end of September they should be sprayed to prevent diseases. Take care NOT to spray the show flowers .
15. October Apply some more Sulphate of Potash at 20gm per square metre as from this time onwards the bulbs do their main growing getting ready for the next flowering season. It is during this period of growth that the bulbs split up, natures way of increasing your stock .
16. November Keep cultivating and give the bulbs a final fungicide spray. By the end of the month some varieties will start to die off. During this part of the bulbs growth cycle food in the foliage returns to the bulb so do not cut any of the foliage at any time.
17. December Before school breaks up for the year the ‘2YearDown’ bulbs should be lifted out of the soil, cleaned off and stored in onion bags. Hang them in a cool dry place.
