In order to investigate the influence of the growth characteristics of onions in the Hexi Corridor, this paper tested the growth characteristics of onions in the Oasis by using the early golden dragon onion as a test material and randomly grouped it into different irrigation modes and cover methods. There were five treatments in the experiment, and the growth characteristics of onion was measured in each reproductive period, and the results showed that: The transverse diameter and longitudinal diameter of bulb showed a decreasing trend with the increase of regulation deficit range. The transverse diameter and longitudinal diameter of bulb in T3 treatment were significantly lower than those in T1 and T2 due to the large amplitude of regulation deficit in the whole growth. There was no significant difference between T1 and T4, but it was significantly larger than T5. Moderate deficit and fine sand mulching were not conducive to the growth of bulb transverse diameter and longitudinal diameter.According to the growth characteristics of onion, the best regulation of onion growth can be achieved by covering the whole growth period with black plastic film and sufficient irrigation, which has theoretical guidance and reference significance for onion planting in Hexi irrigation area.
