One day not too long ago I tripped over a youtube video on how to regrow celery. So this Thanksgiving I saved the very bottom of the celery stalks that I diced for stuffing. I followed the general directions shared by all the youtube videos of soaking the very bottom of the original celery stalks for days in water. I think I remembered to change the water each day. After the little new baby celery stalks started growing -regrowing celery- I stuck the same bottom of the original celery stalk into wet dirt. Simple... and it's not dead yet! You can see the fresh celery stalks growing in the middle. The old cut-off celery stalks are a bit dried out, but I'm not sure yet if I should remove them or not. So far so good so sharing the story & the photo of the little celery plant that will hopefully regrow itself before I make stuffing again :)
Here's some video how-to-do for trying this yourself!
Sorry to say I can't remember which celery video I saw first, so I put 4 different regrow celery instruction videos there to help anyone find them faster than I did! Good luck & I really do hope you try this - if it works, can you just imagine not having to buy celery ever again? Pretty cool!
Here's the
update picture on how much (or little) the celery grew in 4 days.
