Indoor Vegetable Garden from Scraps

Dont Make Soup, grow vegetables!

Grow an Indoor Vegetable Garden from Leftover Scraps.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people growing celery from the bottom 2″ of the stalk, and was inspired to try it. But I wondered what other vegetables can you root from the original plant. Here’s a quick list of what I’ve found from all around the net.

1. Celery
2. Onions – Green and Round
3. Potatoes – Regular and Sweet
4. Leeks, Scallions
5. Carrot Tops
6. Pineapple
7. Romaine Lettuce
8. Cabbage
9. Avocado
10. Sprouts – beans, sunflowers, lentils, pumpkin, alfalfa
11. Ginger
12. Garlic
13. Bok Choy
14. Beets
15. Turnips
16. Rutabaga
17. Lemongrass

Ive personally tried pineapple, but it always seems to rot the minute I stick it in dirt. Heres a video of it actually working, plus quite a few other veggies rooting.

And last but not least… if youre REALLY into this, theres an entire book dedicated to the subject
