The University of Georgia (UGA) evaluates short day onion varieties to determine their performance characteristics in standardized growing practices. Variety entries for the trial are submitted by participating seed companies. These trials are conducted at the Vidalia Onion and Vegetable Research Center (VOVRC) located in Lyons, GA.

Materials and Methods

There were 49 varieties entered into the 2024–2025 UGA onion variety trial. After seed entries were received, seedbeds were grown for transplant production by UGA staff at the VOVRC. Pre-plant seedbed treatment included a 75-gallon per acre fumigation treatment of metam sodium for weed and disease suppression.

The seedbeds were planted on September 23, 2024, and the trial was transplanted on November 19, 2024. Upon harvest and grading, yield measurements are taken, and a 10-bulb sample of jumbo onions per plot is sent to the UGA Crop Quality Laboratory in Athens, GA, to undergo flavor testing.

Seedbed and trial fertility, as well as fungicide programs, are listed below. The trial evaluates each variety replication in a 20 ft long by 6 ft wide plot containing 240 bulbs. Each variety was replicated four times and harvested based on a committee decision of maturity. The transplant population for the trial was equivalent to 87,120 plants per acre.

Harvest Timing

Each variety was selected for harvest based upon signs of weak tops and/or adequately sized bulbs. A committee of Extension agents determined the harvest/pulling of varieties. Participating seed companies reserve the right to specify when or what characteristics determine the harvest of their variety. Varieties were clipped 7 days after their dig date. Growing degree days (GDDs) aid us in forecasting harvest maturity for onions. A base temperature of 50 °F is used in formulating GDDs accumulated.
