JUST REGROW VEGGIES AT HOME ..

JUST REGROW VEGGIES AT HOME ..
1 Leeks, Scallions, Spring Onions and Fennel You can either use the white root end of a vegetable that you have already cut, or buy a handful of new vegetables to use specifically for growing.
Simply place the white root end in a glass jar with a little water, and leave it in a sunny position. I keep mine in the kitchen window. The green leafy part of the plant will continue to shoot. When it’s time to cook, just snip off what you need from the green growth
and leave the white root end in water to keep growing. Freshen up the water each week or so, and you’ll never have to buy them again.
2 Also Lemongrass grows just like any other grass. To propagate it, place the root end after you’ve cut the rest off n put in a glass jar with a little water, and leave it in a sunny position.
3 Similar to leeks, these vegetables like Celery, Bok Choi, Romaine Lettuce & Cabbage will re-grow from the white root end.
4 Ginger is very easy to re-grow. Simply plant a piece of ginger rhizome in a pot having soil with the newest n smallest buds facing upward. Ginger enjoys filtered, not direct, sunlight in a warm moist environment.
5 Pick a potato that has robust eyes, you can re-grow potatoes from any old potato that has ‘eyes’ growing on it.
6 You can re-grow a plant from just a single clove i.e just plant it, root-end down, in a warm position with plenty of direct sunlight. The garlic will root itself and produce new shoots.
