DIY: Growing Green Onions

In my off-time, I peruse Pinterest quite avidly. I came across this pin last week and knew I had to try it out! Not only is it a great way to save money, but I've been wanting to start growing my own herbs and vegetables for a while. The great thing is, even though it is still gloomy and not so sunny in Boston, the green onions continue to grow.

All you have to do is save the bottom bulb portion of the green onions, place them in a jar, and fill the jar with water. And presto! They start growing! I've been changing the water every 2-3 days, and the onions have been growing wonderfully. See below!

If you look at the shortest green onions, I added them to the bunch this morning! See how quickly they grow?
