So first you’ll need your green onions.As far as I can tell, any ol’ green onion bundle will do, but of course try and pick the healthiest-looking ones like you normally would.. Go ahead and use them in your recipe, but instead of using the whole thing, only chop off the top dark green parts and leave the white parts along with the light green parts and the bulbs with the little roots at the bottom.
That should be about this tall..These onions re-grow really easily, so don’t worry about it too much, just eyeball it!This batch had already been growing for about a week and had already been harvested once.
I just decided on a whim to share this fun idea with you so that’s why you can see that the old parts had started to dry out already.. Place your green onions in a glass of cool water, filling it up so that it just covers the white parts of the onion.. And that’s it!No fertilizers or rooting hormone needed for this!
Place the glass on a counter near a window and watch in amazement at how fast they grow!.
Within a few days you’ll have something that looks like this:.Maybe it doesn’t look so stunning, but it feels better to me, and that’s motivation to keep going, all year, 365 days.
I’m betting I can even find things to clean up out here during the Winter months too..If that doesn’t happen though, and I forget again about the power of these 15 minutes, can someone remind me in the Spring?.
I’m going to need all the 15 minutes’ and the 365 days’ that I can get!I really really love a good rag wreath.I think I’ve made about four of them for different occasions this year.
