Japanese term

吊玉時

Japanese to English Other Agriculture
胞子が吊玉時に鱗茎に侵入して腐敗させる。

Can find many examples online but no one gives a definition or English equivalent. It's from a passage about a fungus that attacks (bulb) onions. Botrytis alli, specifically.
Proposed translations (English)
4 during hanging

Proposed translations

5 hrs

during hanging

Something like "during hanging" or "while being stored" depending on the context. Onions are usually strung and hung for storage to dry the outer layers. These strings of onions are often seen around the necks of Frenchmen.

Note from asker:
Thank you! I am unfamiliar with the specifics of onion wrangling, so this was a big help. 吊玉 seems to be "stringing onions" colloquially, which is what I used in the actual job. Very much appreciated!
