Want to grow celery from stalks?
It’s easier than you think!
With just a few steps, you can have fresh celery at home. Discover 6 simple tactics to get started.
Let’s get planting!
Gather Your Supplies
First things first, you need to gather a few basic supplies. Here’s what you’ll need:
- A fresh celery stalk with a base that’s still intact.
- A shallow bowl or container.
- Water.
- Potting soil (for later stages).
- A small pot (for later stages).
Once you have everything ready, you’ll be set to get growing!
Prepare the Celery Stalk
Start by cutting off the base of the celery stalk, about 2 inches from the bottom. This is the part you’ll use to regrow your celery.
Don’t toss the rest of the stalks, though—they’re still great for snacking or cooking!
Get the Water Ready
Fill a shallow bowl or container with enough water to cover the base of the celery. Place the celery base in the bowl, cut side up.
Make sure it’s submerged in the water. Then, place the bowl in a sunny window.
You’ll see some growth in just a few days, which is super exciting!
Change the Water Regularly
One key thing to remember is to change the water every couple of days. This keeps it fresh and helps prevent any bad odors or bacteria from forming.
Your celery base will thank you by sprouting faster and healthier!
Time to Transfer to Soil
After a week or two, you should see some nice green growth coming from the center. When the roots look substantial, grab a small pot and some potting soil.
Plant the celery base into the soil, making sure the new leaves are above the surface.
Water and Wait
Once planted, give your celery a good watering. From this point on, you just need to keep the soil moist but not soggy.
Place the pot back in that sunny spot, and let nature do its thing. In no time, you’ll have a fresh, new celery plant to harvest!
