How to regrow green onions

[@AlmightyAphrodite]

I read somewhere that putting them in soil will have them grow sturdier, apparently they're more fragile when grown in only water.

[@Salaiya1]

I have mine in soil and yes they are very sturdy as they have nutrients to absorb

[@yellowbearanimations]

Tried this thinking it wouldn’t work, but it actually worked!

[@CandiOsaka]

did they need sunlight ?

[@yellowbearanimations]

@@CandiOsaka well all plants need sunlight. I just put it in my window sill and it grew perfectly. Changing the water is the most important thing to do though. After a few days it gets smelly

[@alexiswilson4186]

Lots of sunlight makes them darker and taste better, they don’t like heat, you can put a plastic bag over them to retain moisture and you can also keep them in your fridge for a few months and usually up to a year but they’ll be a light color

[@nikkifangaiuiha6081]

Yes l love this hack an it definitely works too,l always do this with my spring onions🤗❤❤❤❤❤

[@KDbelieves]

I accidentally did this. I put them in a cup of water and placed them in my fridge because I noticed that they wilted very fast. I had them in there for about two weeks slowly taking one stem when needed.
Then I noticed that they grew so tall they were touching the top of the fridge and the stems were bending. I also noticed the water was pretty murky, so I poured it out and added new ones, then I placed them on my kitchen couter. Two days later, they grew so long they were touching the bottom of my kitchen cabinets.
It's so cool to see plants grow. It's like magic! It really makes me appreciate God more.
Update: Definitely plant these in soil. When I finally went around to cutting one again, it was slime coming out. The water rotted it from the inside. Looked healthy and tall in the surface, but there was too much water, so plant it.

Neverending green onions!!! 😳💚

[@marthabeales7805]

The bottoms have the most flavour???

[@karenstrong8887]

I use the white bits first to cook in my Asian meals. The green bits are nice garnish.

[@hdidhkdd1121]

fr , I eat them in breakfast with my family

[@user-sr6yp7dy6g]

Yeah well you'll have infinite green onions so it's pretty cool! Once you have lots you can eat some bottoms! 😂

[@donotresuscitatetrampstamp]

infinite food hack

[@teresajose2280]

It’s definitely not infinite. Not even worth it to be honest.

[@donotresuscitatetrampstamp]

@@teresajose2280 how come? genuinely curious

[@db1996]

@@teresajose2280 it is ? if you then plant in a pot they regrow year on year every spring i literally do this haven’t bought spring onion in 3 years and i have an infinite supply . you can also harvest the greens every like 1-2 weeks and they grow back . where did you get your misinformation from or are you just making stuff up ?

[@db1996]

@@donotresuscitatetrampstamp don’t listen to them they don’t know what they’re talking about

[@user-sr6yp7dy6g]

​@@teresajose2280You probably have never done it. So many people don't even buy them anymore by doing thus. Stop spreading misinformation.

[@Abbie-i1v]

Thats my ship😍😍

[@sheilamarie3788]

We eat the bottom except the root. That gets composted. No waste that way either.

[@robertambroise5619]

Man I never knew that I'm going to start doing that for now on.

[@lorindagarcia4902]

WOW THANK YOU!

[@desramps3324]

It's been a week and mine isn't growing nearly that quickly. I have about 2 inches after 8 days and it's in constant water

[@AprilFriendsea]

:O I am sHoKeThHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I need to tell my mom this!

[@amandakhan2642]

Once in water... store them on the countertop or in the fridge? 🤔

[@thedietdiary]

On the window sill

[@zeblebanon5188]

In the sun somewhere indoors.

[@jamesmorrison7847]

I've been doing this for years on my window sill. But, change the water every couple of days or it will get slimey.

[@sneakysnake2866]

Do you change out the water?

[@cousinmajin]

I always change the water daily or else the onion will get slimy

[@KDbelieves]

Yeah. Once you see it getting a bit murky, change the water. I do it every other day or so.

[@dominiquereid8834]

Do I cover the jar or leave it open ??

[@tebereszb.8121]

Why do so many kitchen-waste-reducing vids start with the assumption that people throw out the perfectly tasty and useful parts of the vegetables too? Why reduce waste that does not happen...

[@squidwardstentacle]

"I've never heard of this before, so it has never happened before"

[@nmpoy]

genuinely curious on who could be throwing away the scallion whites. i’d like a word with them 🤓

[@db1996]

but with this method you never have to grow them again, if you then plant in a pot of soil they regrow forever year on year every spring and you can harvest the greens over and over again

[@Irreverent_Radiation]

Because some people are man/woman children that don't know how to effectively use everything.

[@risa-ru]

How do you regrow the white parts? I use them for cooking and this only shows how to regrow the green half

[@Irreverent_Radiation]

You can't really regrow that part, those are the roots and nutrients and it's not like a carrots where you can leave a bit and regrow it

[@risa-ru]

@@Irreverent_Radiation then how do you get the seeds for them?

[@Irreverent_Radiation]

@@risa-ru I suppose you'd have to ask at a gardener's market/store.

[@risa-ru]

@@Irreverent_Radiation ok thank you

[@patnunley2341]

Is it better to start to reroute them in water instead of putting them in soil?

[@stevet8121]

I start them in water for a few days and when the roots start to grow then put them in soil. Never fails.

[@dhiyaciyashibu8369]

Actually what is the difference between green Onion's and shallots.

[@teresajose2280]

Don’t throw them away?? Who does that? Lol I’ve never known anyone to do that. Ever. Use the entire onion. It’s all edible and delicious. Or you could grow some sad sprouts with them. I’ve done it, it wasn’t much to write home about that’s for sure.

[@jiglywilglymeme6703]

i eat the bottom. 💀

[@squidwardstentacle]

Why are some of these comments so salty, geesh...
Anyway, my supermarket scammed me. They always trim the ends of 😭😭😭
