If you are near Khmun or Meroe etc. you should know of The Magic Onion Patch located by Sonny. Coords are (-30, -1975). The yield per seed is 19. There is a public warehouse built there with jugs you can use to grow your onions. You may stash onions in the warehouse. The warehouse was built by Borian who lives near there. He plans to build a public kitchen for carry food nearby as well. Please be sure to return the jugs to the warehouse before leaving. Bring your seeds! -- Shams

Note - I got 5:1 yield when I was west of the UArt in QR (-285, 6920)..I have traveled north along this line to (-285, 6420) with the same result. I am completely alone out here. :) At (-1285, 6420) it reverts back to 4:1 yield. Iwibara

Note 2 - I repeatedly got 10 onions per seed at 798 7017, near my compound. There were no avatars within a 5-coord radius, possibly not within 10, but there were 2-5 name tags visible at the edges of my screen at all times. The point I grew at is within 2 coords of water and at least 6 coords from any dirt or grass. - [[User:Wadjet|Wadjet]]

Onion yield seems to be entirely location based, with different players achieving the same yield at the same location regardless of gender, avatar, or time of day. Onion yield has been shown to be halved when there are others nearby. The minimum yield per onion harvest is 4. The highest recorded onion growing location is the ''Magic Onion Patch'' (see [[Talk:Onions|discussion]]) discovered by [[User:Sonny|Sonny]] at (-30, -1975) which yields 19 per seed.

Note - Unlike the other vegetables, if you over water onions they do not die. Whether over-watering has any effect on seed generation or yield is unknown.

Onions.png
Bulk 1
Weight 1

Grown on sand from Onion Seeds.

How to obtain:

  • Plant Onion Seeds in a sandy area. Water it immediately, and water it again each time it changes size. Harvest once the option appears.

Unlike the other vegetables, if you over water onions they do not die. It appears that watering onions resets their growth timer, making it take longer for the onion to reach the next stage of growth. (see discussion for details)

Uses

Yield

Onion yield seems to be entirely location based, with different players achieving the same yield at the same location regardless of gender, avatar, or time of day. Onion yield has been shown to be halved when there are others nearby. The minimum yield per onion harvest is 4. The highest recorded onion growing location is the Magic Onion Patch (see discussion) discovered by Sonny at (-30, -1975) which yields 19 per seed.

Update: 24 onions per seed at (-80, -545) in Khmun.


Seed Production

Have a maxed out Endurance timer when you Harvest.

Will produce 0 Onions and 2 Seeds
