Do you love green onions and want to have a never-ending supply right in your kitchen? It’s super easy and fun to regrow them at home! Let’s learn how you can do it with just a few simple steps.
After you use green onions in your cooking, don’t throw away the white root ends. These are the parts that can grow again! Place these root ends in a glass of water. Make sure the roots are covered with water, but the tops are sticking out.
Put the glass with the green onion roots in a sunny spot, like a windowsill. Sunlight helps them grow faster. Remember to change the water every few days to keep it fresh and clean. In about a week or two, you’ll see them start to grow!
Once your green onions have grown tall enough, you can cut off what you need for cooking. Just make sure to leave the roots in the water so they can keep growing. This way, you’ll have a continuous supply of fresh green onions!
Did you know that green onions are also called scallions? They are packed with vitamins and can make your meals extra tasty and healthy!
Now you can enjoy fresh green onions anytime you want, and it’s a great way to learn about how plants grow. Happy gardening!
Observation Journal: Start a green onion observation journal. Each day, draw a picture of your green onions and write a sentence about any changes you see. How tall are they growing? Are there any new shoots? This will help you notice how plants grow over time.
Green Onion Experiment: Try regrowing green onions in different conditions. Use three glasses and place them in different spots: one in a sunny window, one in a shaded area, and one in a dark place. Predict which one will grow the fastest and check your results after a week. Discuss why you think some grew better than others.
Cooking with Green Onions: With the help of an adult, use your regrown green onions in a simple recipe, like scrambled eggs or a salad. Talk about how the green onions add flavor and nutrition to your meal. Can you think of other dishes where you could use your homegrown green onions?
