Last year, I bought a 1.5 lbs bag of purple baby potatoes in my local ShopRite. I couldn’t find purple potato seeds, so I decided to take a chance. There were 22 baby potatoes and all of them had eyes with some growth protruding, so I knew they would take off. Sure enough, I got an excellent crop out of those 22 baby potatoes. We enjoyed them until the end of year and then somehow forgot about them. When in March I realized we had still about ten pounds of potatoes, they had already started to sprout. In April, I planted some and the rest donated to the community garden. Both - us and the community gardeners - enjoyed huge crop of delicious purple potatoes. In the past, I occasionally planted store-bought potatoes when they were sprouting, but this was the first time I deliberately purchased a bag of potatoes just for planting. I am glad I did.
Am I the only one who is saying, "What??? where's the "Let's go!!" ???? I always say that when I watch James' videos. That's part of the intro😭 Interesting video :) I have been trying all year to grow ginger, FINALLY, i have four small sprouts, hope they hang on.
I love this, I did an experiment one time with scallions, and celery. I also take all my tomatoes that are not looking good at the end of season and just let them compost in my beds and I get lots of free tomatoes (large and cherry) every year. It definitely is a great experiment and they all taste as fresh as their original veggies. Thank you and God bless 🙏
That's amazing! Thanks for doing this I always learn a lot from you! My fav part of beets are the tops / greens! I always cook radish tops, beet tops, turnip tops. A little EVOO, salt, red pepper flakes, garlic and sautee for 2 minutes. Can add wine or lemon juice or stock or water to make a lil steam. Super fast and easy! Please don't throw away your tops! I have chitted and planted organic potatoes. Super easy!

I'm 69, when I was a little kid, my elderly neighbors, threw all their scraps, from veggies in a certain spot of the garden, they would get food from there, it amazed me, i thought that was so cool!
My parents always grew potatoes from the eyes that would sprout attached to a 1/4 slice of the potato. It was free food! Great experiment. Thank you for all of your videos. ❤
James! I had to pause your video to tell you that this video was one of the most exciting ones I've seen in a very long time! I don't get out much obviously... But, you really hit the nail on the head with thisk one -- so appreciate you sharing this with us!
Great experiment James, I will recreate it. One thing about the beet - you can eat and enjoy just the greens from the top. Young leaves are great in salad, larger ones are wonderful sauted in olive and garlic, mix with some orrechetti pasta- yum. The green tops of beets have the most amount of potassium than any food!
i love regrowing green onion .i have green onions all year . just leave about a inch in the garden or leave 1'' of the white part by the roots and replant it.(the store bought one). i regrow carrots and celery for the seeds. regrow maters too .
I grow scallions in a pot indoors all winter long so I can just use one at a time. I snip just above the base and they regrow all winter long. Also grew some very nice leeks from the root base of store bought leeks. Every little bit helps!
I have a large compost frame (nearly 1 metre high) where are all my kitchen scraps and garden rubbish goes in. Every year in the late summer I harvest huge amounts of my favourite potatoes out of it because the potato peels with the “eyes” just go like mad and I let the plant simply do its thing. I buy from the store the waxy baby potatoes and usually I eat them with the skin, but sometimes there’s a bad bit which I cut off. This year I harvest it nearly 18 kg of beautiful potatoes 🥰 Thank you for this video, it’s amazing how things grow if we let them. 😇
Excellent presentation Thank you. You have given me some great tips for growing vegies. Will be cleaning out my fridge and planting. I'm excited about it, to see what I'm able to reproduce. Many thanks. ❤
Yes. Throw scraps into garden. Make sure you want those scraps to grow there if they sprout or regrow. I had volunteer tomatoes from my scraps. I live my volunteers❤❤❤❤
Good on you for going the distance with your experiment, I especially appreciate your advice on the ginger; I'll head out and try to revive my poor little lump of ginger from going rotten thanks to your inspiring message.😊 One thing I’ve been doing is buying organic fruits and veggies, just say one beet or one potato, special tomatoes, carrots, so it's not costly, and use those for seed and rooting material, as they're organic and should be pesticide free. I'm in Melbourne Australia, we're heading into our characteristically hot summer from an extended winter, juggling climate change 🤷♀️😬probably quite similar to MI, minus the snow! 😎💙👍🇦🇺love your vids❤
A great experiment. The beat and the carrot came out very interesting. I can see Tuck got his haircut at the begging of this experiment. Very cute. Thanks for sharing your video.
Love your energy and approach. I have to say that after watching about 5 of your videos I wondered why you kept saying ‘mean talk’. It was only after I started wondering what ‘mean talk’ means that I realised you were actually saying ‘me & Tok’ being you and your cool little doggy lol. Anyway Australia here , down south, keep up the good work, some of your info doesn’t apply down here such as some of the garden pests don’t exist here, but we have other pests to take their place believe me. Looking forward to watching more of your videos 🤙
Great idea from this video. If u ever get a really good carrot. Or a black or a purple.. regrow the top and massive seeds. Carrots are great for seeds. Thx james.
Store tomatoes are bland and flavorless anyway, so I'm not surprised the ones you grew didn't taste the best. I was surprised that the garlic didn't form heads until you mentioned they didn't go through a winter in the ground, then that made sense. Overall, a fun experiment to watch! Thanks for filming it for us!
This is how I got my initial seed for my romaine lettuce I grow. I planted the base of some romaine but actually left the smaller inner leaves intact so it already had a head start and something for it to be able to use to photosynthesize energy for itself right from the start. It’s super easy to get lettuce to bolt and viola, about a month later I had thousands and thousands of lettuce seeds to use to start a bunch from scrap. Now all it takes is for me to have three heads rotating in my hydroponic deep water setup and I have more lettuce then I can even fathom to use every day. I use the cut and come again method until the plant is done and bolts naturally, then I just cut it off, take it out and plant a new seed. Haven’t ran out of seeds yet, but just earlier this year I let a. Couple I had growing outside go to seed to get some new fresh seed. I actually do this for a lot of vegetables I want to grow. I go get about 15 pounds each of all the different potato varieties I want to grow, also one sweet potato, and use those as my seed potatoes each year. Before I got seed for my basil, I re-grew basil from the store too. It is a very cheap way to get stock of seeds for plants you may want to grow and the nice part is with most of the veggies you get, you get to consume most of it too before using it to grow more food/seeds! Absolutely love it! Plants are f-ing amazing!
Awesome! Have not tried to grow potatoes or onions in the 20+ years that I've lived in the Atlanta, GA area, though my mom used to grow potatoes in Anchorage, AK in the 60's/70's. I've been torn as to whether to purchase seed potatoes and onion sets or whether to grow from store-bought like you did. I think at the moment I'm leaning heavily towards store bought based on your successful experimentation. Probably should do both though....? In any case, thanks for providing us with yet another way to grow our own food. ❤❤❤❤❤for the Young King (Tuck)!!!
I get food from the locally owned grocery for the chickens -- there was bags of onions that were growing significantly so I planted them in pots everywhere around my garden. They grew flowers but there was small onions ... I ate some but I'm going to do what you said about drying them and making them sets for net year. I'm in zone 4 so I don't suppose they will over winter??? Thank you for the awesome experiments!!!
Sungold cherry. Planted 5 seedlings. Got ATTACKED by so many tomatoes. It was overwhelming. I froze them and will kick up the flavors of the salsas I shall can up later this month.
Carrot tops taste like carrot. You can use them in salads in place of carrot root for flavor. I've got a few carrots I put out in the spring. The roots are crap but the tops are nice and green. I do recommend removing the main stems and just using the leaves.
I live in zone 6 in Mass. I throw a few of my sweet 100's cherry tomatoes on the soil of the raised bed gardens at the end of the season. In the spring when the soil hits temperature the seeds sprout and i get plants. They get loaded with cherry tomatoes. I also do the same with my bigger tomatoes like Early girl and have had the same results. I also save a handful of lil red and lil yellow potatoes, full size Yukon gold potato and a sweet potato that i leave sprout thru the winter in my house. i then plant them in the soil in a sunny place mid to late march depending if there is snow on the ground may be later. I get a good-sized harvest from them every year. i actually get to put a second batch down, but it yields half of what i get from the first. i have been doing this for over 30 years with no fail. i also plant the garlic from the grocery store in pieces like you did. but it takes 2 maybe 3 years before it amounts to anything. Experimenting is fun in the garden.
Great video and Thanks for the experiments, really fun to see! Just one question, the potatoes, did they taste good? Did you get clones of the one you planted or did you get offspring that is different? Like with the tomatoes? Thanks for another video! ❤
I figured you knew full well how some of these would go, but decided to do it anyway just to show others (i.e. how the carrots and beets were not going to regrow their main taproot). But I didn't expect the beet and carrot to get so weird since they survived their regrowth. 😂 I am jealous of your soil though. I make my own too, but finding decent compost is like pulling teeth around here for some reason. 😭
Amazing!! Now you can take those bottoms and regrow that. Endless supply of food. Hearts for Tuck. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ It doesn't matter how they look, chop it up and everything is tasty. Tiny carrots for Tuck.
Interesting video James. I was a little surprised you didn't try corn as well. I will stick with purchasing seeds, seed potatoes, asparagus crowns, etc. Growing my food in my garden is time consuming enough without using prime amended soil space for re-growth. And I live on 5 acres of a 3rd generation dairy farm land, my Grandfather started. Soil so mellow it is impossible to stop something from growing, unfortunately that includes weeds! But I have only so many hours available to tend the garden,
I've done this before but not with beets. I'm surprised and disappointed the beets didn't go to seed. I've done well growing tumeric in pots and ginger in the ground here on PEI, Canada.
re: rooting and growing stuff like celery, cabbage, lettuce, etc - you peel all the leaves off the outside. all of that's going to rot on you, you have to remove them and you MUST have some of the root cells on the bottom or it won't root. always plant the bottom of your onions and then just snip the green tops and chop those up to eat. they'll grow all year round - heat and cold and snow don't bother them
This was so cool, and I will definitely be trying next year. I'm curious if you overwinter any of your peppers or tomatoes? Thanks for a great experiment!
i have had pepper plants that grew 3 years. tomatoes don't last for over a year for me.but i have harvested them in jan outside but we have over 300 growing day here and mild winters
I save seeds from my favourit heirloom tomatoes instead of buying new seeds every year. I have also tried saving seeds from storebought hybrids, just to sees how they'll turn out. This year I actually got some that tasted really good. Will be interesting to see what their offspring will taste like next year...🤔
I've tried this, nothing grew as regular produce. I can grow stuff out of compost pile a lot better I'm glad you had better luck than myself 😊 I'm unable to open your extra for raised beds, says utube unable to open?
Turmeric needs 18 months and tropical heat to do anything worthwhile and store bought tomatoes are bread for shelf stability not flavor. Ginger is a bit more forgiving . There are so many varieties. A few market gardeners here in Quebec are growing it low tunnels inside a high tunnel

Lo e this video James.
thanks for the chance
This is one of the most fun videos Ive seen! Oh how I love Tuck! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

❤❤❤❤❤ All for Tuck! Hes the very best taste tester. Great video.
We did this with celery! It grew beautifully and the flavor oh my! We even dried the leaves.
James! I had to pause your video to tell you that this video was one of the most exciting ones I've seen in a very long time! I don't get out much obviously... But, you really hit the nail on the head with thisk one -- so appreciate you sharing this with us!

I do this all the time with green onions, but didn’t know I could do it with other scraps too! ❤❤❤❤s for Tuck.
I did it with a pineapple in Texas last February and my neighbor down there sent me a photo of it still growing

I love the onion experiments. I’m definitely trying the regrow method!
Excellent presentation Thank you. You have given me some great tips for growing vegies. Will be cleaning out my fridge and planting. I'm excited about it, to see what I'm able to reproduce. Many thanks. ❤
Thank you for doing this. I've regrown celery and green onions before
This was so interesting, thanks for doing this!
Yes. Throw scraps into garden. Make sure you want those scraps to grow there if they sprout or regrow. I had volunteer tomatoes from my scraps. I live my volunteers❤❤❤❤
This was really great video, I've often thought about trying this myself so it was very educational to see how you did it. Thank you
Zone 10b. I grew a beet for 4 years (for the greens) so good.
I love Tuck! I can’t get my Rottweiler to eat veggies unless they are disguised or already mixed into his freeze dried dog food.
Make a vegetable stew and add a stew bone for flavor, dogs love that.
I’ve always wondered if this would work. Thank you so much!
Thank you for showing somenothers I never knew I can regrow.
This experiment was so much fun!
Thank you, this was an interesting video with a great idea to utilize vegetable waste to regrow food.
Awesome video!!!! I'm learning so much, can't wait to get my harvest!!!!

The whole onion ended up like a shallot; garlic needed more time like usual; potatoes are amazing too. Wondering what date you started?
I have good results with onions,celery, potatoes,and tomatoes. Free food thank God.
🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔 Really surprised at your potato crop from the store.❤❤❤❤❤ for Tuck!
That is so cool to be able to re-grow veggies 🥕👍🥳
Great idea from this video. If u ever get a really good carrot. Or a black or a purple.. regrow the top and massive seeds. Carrots are great for seeds. Thx james.
One beet look great, I need to try that.

Great video! I'd envourage you to give Topinambur a try. Super easy to grow. Great results. And absolutely tasty in salads or instead of potatoes.
Thanks. Great video as usual❤

Giving TUCK the carrot before James P ate it was a risky move smh lol
Thank you! ❤
That was a great video ❤ thanks
❤ Tuck! ❤
I call it circular food❤❤❤❤
Nice job😊
Were the vegetables and vegetable scraps organic? That potato harvest was amazing!
Yup. They were organic veggies 😁👍
NVM....you just answered my question in the video. I love growing scallion scraps...they grow all summer in a planter on my deck.
Mother Nature is beautiful. Anyone that has useable land should be growing some sort of food.
This was so cool, and I will definitely be trying next year. I'm curious if you overwinter any of your peppers or tomatoes? Thanks for a great experiment!
i have had pepper plants that grew 3 years. tomatoes don't last for over a year for me.but i have harvested them in jan outside but we have over 300 growing day here and mild winters
I wonder if growing from your homegrown tomatoes rather than store bought would be better…
I save seeds from my favourit heirloom tomatoes instead of buying new seeds every year. I have also tried saving seeds from storebought hybrids, just to sees how they'll turn out. This year I actually got some that tasted really good. Will be interesting to see what their offspring will taste like next year...🤔
If you leave the onion to grow it will turn into a lot of onion seedling you can separate and plant each one
Great idea! You do indoor micro greens over winter 🤷♂️. 👽🥗🎬
Awesome video 📹, just amazing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was a good one. I've done this a few times but I don't think that my soil is on par 🕊️🕊️🕊️
Long live the King, Tuck the dog💚💚💚💚
What do you think the reason was that the celery did not grow? Loved the video!
I regrow green onions from the store in my green stock
Great experiment. Store tomatoes aren't that tasty to start with!! Fun.
That’s really cool 😎 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I did not realize onions could produce more bulbs like that.
Tuck ❤
I wonder if you let the carrots go ahead make its flowers if that could be a way to harvest your own seeds.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ for you and The Boss
I've tried this, nothing grew as regular produce. I can grow stuff out of compost pile a lot better
I'm glad you had better luck than myself 😊
I'm unable to open your extra for raised beds, says utube unable to open?
Do you do your garden in the winter time James or no?
I’m surprised by the carrot 🥕 and beets
I'm gonna go plant a hotdog tree right now.
Loved your video! Tried to hit like button and it won't register! Tried multiple times!
Hello
Hey!!👋
melem giant gourami grasscarp pacu fish can eat some type of plant leaf sir
Turmeric needs 18 months and tropical heat to do anything worthwhile and store bought tomatoes are bread for shelf stability not flavor.
Ginger is a bit more forgiving . There are so many varieties. A few market gardeners here in Quebec are growing it low tunnels inside a high tunnel
