Thank you for the celery idea I never thought about that cuz you can't freeze it and it doesn't last the whole long time in the fridge LOL

Rob, if you put the celery in a jar with some fresh water and keep it in the fridge with the bag over the top, it will last longer, and start to root, too

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
What else can you grow from the roots of fresh veggies
will this method work for carrots. I know you can get carrot tops to sprout greenery, but will it then grow a new carrot too?
