When the onion foliage bends over and turns yellowy, it is almost time to
harvest onions. Leave them for two weeks, and then pull them on a dry

The bulbs must be mature if the harvested onions are going to be stored.

Leave the mature onions to dry and ripen, so that the skin becomes
shiny, before they are stored.
