Onions can be found growing in the world. Onions seeds can also be found in {{ll|cracked vessel|cracked vessels}}.  
Small patches of onion crops can be found while exploring, in areas with the following [[Temperature#Effect_on_plants|temperature]], [[Weather#Precipitation|precipitation]], and [[World_generation#Tree_Generation|forestation]]. 
{{Climate
|MinTemp=3
|MaxTemp=29
|MinRain=0.38
|MaxRain=0.75
|MinForest=0
|MaxForest=0.65
}}
Chunks meeting these conditions have a 1.5% likelihood of generating 0-10 onion crops, which might include a mix of mature and immature crops.
<br><br>
Surface ruins and underground ruins usually contain 1 or more cracked loot vessels, which might contain crop seeds.  5-7 onion seeds can sometimes be found in a [[Cracked_vessel#Seed_Vessels|Cracked vessel (Seed)]].
<br><br>
Onions and onion seeds cannot be purchased from any [[Trading|traders]].

Onions can withstand temperatures between -1 and 40°C but can only grow if the temperatures are positive. They require 1.85 months (16.7 days) to grow at default 9 day per month settings, and go through 7 growth stages. Onions use up 35% P nutrition (Phosphorus) from their farm plot. Break the crop using left mouse button with an empty hand, a {{ll|knife|knife}} or a {{ll|scythe|scythe}} to harvest. When fully mature, crops yield multiple onions and at least one seed when harvested. Harvesting immature plants yields fewer onions and may not provide a seed.
Onion crops tolerate temperatures -1 to 40°C, but only grow when above 0°C.  If the temperature drops below -1°C or exceeds 40°C, the onion crop will become [[Temperature#Effect_on_plants|“stunted”]] and begin to accumulate damage. Stunted onion crops will yield 50% of normal when harvested.  
<br><br>
Onion crops consume 35 [[Farming#Soil_nutrients|P (phosphorus)]] over 7 stages of growth.  During stages 2-6, onion crops feed [[Bees|bees]] and [[Butterfly|butterflies]]. Onion crops take [[Farming#Time|1.85 months]] to mature, assuming a growth rate near 100%.  Low [[Farming#moisture|moisture]] or [[Farming#Soil_nutrients|nutrient levels]] can significantly delay maturation.
<br><br>
Each block of mature onion crops will yield 10-14 onions and 1-2 seed packets.  Harvesting at stage 6 will yield 2-4 onions, with a 99% chance of getting 1 seed packet. Harvesting before stage 6 has a 0% chance of getting any onions, and a 70% chance of getting 1 seed packet.

Onions provide 100 vegetable {{ll|satiety|satiety}} when eaten raw. Onions count as a vegetable for {{ll|cooking|cooking}} and can be used in meat stew, vegetable stew, soups and porridges. They stay fresh 28 days if you keep them in your inventory. After that, it takes 5 days for them to turn into {{ll|rot|rot}}. A full stack of 64 onions will turn into 32 rot. Onions are preserved longer when stored in a {{ll|storage vessel|storage vessel}} in a {{ll|cellar|cellar}}. They can be further preserved through {{ll|Food preservation#Pickling|pickling}}.

Onions can be put in a large [[trough]] to breed [[Animal_husbandry|livestock]].  Pigs and sheep consider carrots a treat.<ref>See <code>assets\survival\blocktypes\wood\trough-large.json</code>, line 115</ref>

* [https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/6214-homesteading-part-2-combat-update-stable-1160 Version 1.16.0] doubled growth times and yields for most crops, with some exceptions.

== Notes ==
* Jan-Jun, if the temperature is 16-23°C at 4pm, it’s good for planting onion seeds.
* Onions are a decent crop to focus on for a [[Health#Increasing_maximum_health|balanced diet]].  They use a different nutrient than flax and most grains, but can't tolerance much cold.  Also, you can replant ''without'' crop rotation, since [[fertilizer|bonemeal]] is easy to obtain in great quantity.
