Luke i pruned my onions a couple of times this season after watching one of your other videos, my onions are twice the size of last years crop! Thank you for sharing your learned knowledge with us 😊 regular follower from southern Michigan
I have never heard of this tip for alluims before, found documentation that it is also a proven method for garlic as well, going to try this tomorrow with my onions, garlic is already out so that will have to be tried next year on a small patch
I’ve also heard this might not be a good idea and (contrary to his claim) not something most commercial growers do. It would be easy for them to do, but they don’t. Why reduce the leaves being used for photosynthesis?
I keep trying to convince my SO that I need to use more of the yard to grow. I keep telling him there will be less for him to mow if I do. 😂 Thank you for all the tips Luke!
How to get onion slightly oval shape? All my onion have shape like pumpkin. Difficult to slice. BTW, I've seen many videos, and ALL said that pruning onion like that will give smaller bulbs. People made experiment – half of bed was pruning and other half was left intact. Result was so obvious. You need to do the same. In other way – this is just bs.
I watched one of your other videos a few nights ago and I went out and pruned my 300 or so onion plants. My onions are actually doing really well, it's been hot here in West Michigan and I've been watering regularly, they seem very happy with that combination. I'd still like to get them bigger, though, especially the red ones, so I went out with the scissors and we'll see.

You wasted those green onions lol. You should have snipped them and put them in the dehydrator lol
This is really interesting news! Would you suggest the same for leeks?

Brilliant advice. Now i have the solution. Thankyou
Thank you for the tip and the awesome explanation!!!
This year the bunnies pruned a lot of my bulbing onions. My observation is that those that got “pruned” are smaller than ones that did not get eaten.
I prune them and get great sized onions. Thanks Luke.

Gardeners stress: you need about 5–6 inch spacing and healthy leaves to boost bulb size—sounds like this video nailed it.
I will be trying this for sure! I need a bigger onion…. than i am getting now
oooh thank you for the amazing tip! out of curiosity, would this work for garlic too?
Do you prune garlic the same way?
