Harvesting details

Green onions have a short shelf life of about seven to ten days. Because they are so perishable, green onions are stored at 32ºF at 95 to 100 percent relative humidity. Improper storage of green onions can result in wilted, yellowed, and decayed leaves. Top ice, covered by plastic film, can also be applied to help keep the moisture content high and further preserve the harvested green onions.
