Hello blog friends. Happy June!
Let's Re-Grow Lettuce
Have you ever tried to re-grow lettuce? I didn't realize that you could do this but I discovered you can by visiting the blog Walking On Sunshine Recipes. Lois explains how to re-grow lettuce HERE.
I make salads every day and I thought that this would be a great idea to try.
I was so happy to see the romaine lettuce re-growing after a week.
The steps are easy to re-grow your own lettuce:
- Take romaine lettuce and cut off the end of the lettuce.
- Add water to a mason jar.
- Place the end of the lettuce in a mason jar.
- Change water every other day in the mason jar.
- Wait for lettuce to start re-growing in the middle of the lettuce.
- You can replant lettuce after 2 weeks of growing to a pot or garden.

ReplyDeleteYes, I agree Andrea. I am happy that it's so easy to re-grow the romaine lettuce. Thanks for the blog visit and have a nice week.
DeleteThis is amazing, Julie! I had no idea you could re-grow lettuce! And it's a good project for all of us to try especially in these trying times. Even if it's just for fun! Thanks for sharing this wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteI just started regrowing scallions the same way! I'm going to try lettuce next. Thank you for sharing. Your new blog design looks awesome too!
ReplyDeleteHow very clever. A good way to get more produce. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteI keep pinning ideas how to regrow veggies and fruits but never actually did, oh wait - my daughter tried to regrow a pineapple but it rot - apparently she didn't cut it where it should, so we have one failed attempt.
ReplyDeletehave seen this on a few sites, even growing other veggies. I think it is a great idea. Thanks for sharing Julie. Stay safe and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteWow who would have thought! I will have to try this Julie, have a lovely week. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Linda. I do hope you give this a try as the lettuce is so easy to grow.
DeleteThat is crazy!! I definitely need to give it a try! How does it taste? Enjoy the week!
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing! I've never done that before! Can't wait to try it! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI didn’t know about lettuce, Julie, but I knew about green onions. I’ll have to give this a try! Happy June!
ReplyDeleteOh that's fun! I've regrown scallions, love the idea of lettuce-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteMy neighbor was that lettuce could be regrown but she didn't know how to do it. I should have saved the end of the plant she gave me. She literally pulled the entire Romaine plant out of the ground! I'm so glad you posted this. I will share it with her and maybe she can start to regrow any she has left. Did you use lettuce from a store or your garden?
ReplyDeleteWow this is great. I did not know you could do this. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kris
I had no idea you could do this! :)

ReplyDeleteThanks for the blog visit Carlee. It's so easy to re-grow romaine lettuce and tastes so good in a salad.

Thanks for the blog visit Amalia. I do hope you give re-growing lettuce a try!
DeleteThanks for sharing this. I did one right away and by the next day it had already grown a little. Can't
ReplyDeletewait to watch it grow more and then plant it. My daughter said she had seen where there were others
you could do that with like celery and onions. Just saw one of your one of your followers said she did it with scallions, and we grew a pineapple by planting the top once and it grew to just the right size so I could cut it, but some animal probably a racoon got it.....so we were so bummed, but my
neighbor grows pineapples all the time, and they are delicious.
Happy growing!! Blessings, Nellie
Oh my goodness Julie, I had no idea you could do this! I am in awe! I love salads, and growing my own would be ideal. Thank you so much for sharing your inspiration with us, now I am going to grow my own lettuce too! I am sharing this tomorrow for Whimsy Home Wednesday Julie, I am so excited to give this one a try!
ReplyDeleteI've tried this with celery, no luck. Now gonna try romaine as we eat salads every day too! By the way, I wanted to let you know that I host blog parties. Won’t you drop by and linkup with me?
