A couple of weeks ago I bought green onions for a recipe that resulted in a leftover short sprig.

Well, lo and behold earlier that day I stumbled across a pin about how to grow your own green onions. I gave it a shot and the results are pretty fantastic.

I just have to figure out how to keep this onion growing long-term — do I keep it in water? Do I plant it? Hmm… I’m sure there’s a pin for that, too. 

DIY Grow Your Own Green Onions

Directions

1. The next time you have green onions, don’t throw away the white ends.
2. Simply submerge them in a glass of water and place them in a sunny window.
3. Your onions will begin to grow almost immediately and can be harvested almost indefinitely!
