How To Regrow Lettuce With Just Water!

[@MrWhaatay]

I am doing this now. I saw green growth in the middle 8 hours after I put the end in water. The next day it's 1/4 inch. This is the closest thing I have seen to magic.

[@thetongueofangels1882]

Has it grown by now?

[@MrWhaatay]

@@thetongueofangels1882 It has grown really well. I keep getting new growths so it is getting wider

[@MrWhaatay]

@@thetongueofangels1882 I checked it today. The leaves are 5 inches talk and there are 22 of them.

@@ax3226 you need to be admitted for a psychological evaluation. Seriously.

[@ricksundberg5659]

If you take a super thin, almost see through slice off the bottom to make a fresh cut it will happen even faster as that part gets dried out when harvested. When the roots start to get approximately 3/4" out the bottom I go plant it in soil and it makes a full head again and again.

[@lemonice2700]

You should've made this video

[@beverlycharles6534]

I am doing romaine. It's been 2 days no noticeable activity but top part starting to brown...I think I will try your idea of cutting thin slice off bottom of the stalk. How many days will the process take overall? How many times can I regrow same stalk?

[@SuzyTopAgent]

I'm currently growing lettuce too, day 7 and you're right it's fun to watch it grow daily. I'm doing it with celery too. Hope you are having a great day

[@JennStavropoulos]

I recently started celery too!! 🥰

[@SuzyTopAgent]

@@JennStavropoulos i have a bunch of mini ones sprouting off, they're so cute! Hope yours flourish!

[@5bbya]

How did you grow celery? ​@@SuzyTopAgent

[@SuzyTopAgent]

@@5bbya same way in water but both didn't work well for me, got some straggly shoots on both and difficult to keep water clean so I threw away.

[@wandawells5596]

I’m just starting to see my lettuce grow. It’s amazing, as this is my first time trying to grow food. I also have peppers growing from store bought seeds. 😀

[@eelexa]

Should try growing some delicious herbs next! Rosemary and basil would be a great start.

[@user-hl1ct3yh1r]

How are you growing the peppers

[@hotgirlhealer916]

Me too it’s so exciting 😊

[@DaveE99]

Some how I’ve gotten apple trees to grow but not the peppers

[@jessealfonso9154]

I never knew in all my years this could be done... And it is in the works. After one week I am amazed!!! Thanks you!!!!!

[@elainecrossroads1169]

Love this! The fact that I can do this on the kitchen counter is awesome, because I live in an apartment. Can't wait to try this! Thanks for this video!

[@Pheexperiment]

I am years late. Lol But I did this yesterday afternoon and this morning I have lettuce sprouts coming up the middle already. That is truly magic lol

[@kadii2natalie]

Dang, all these things I throw away I could have simple regrow?! I feel cheated! Anyway, green garden here I come. Thanks girl for this amazing knowledge. :)

[@JennStavropoulos]

Hahaha! Same.

[@schnee78]

Exactly. It looks like most people don´t know it.

[@MarcyVautour]

I know what you mean, Kadian Webb. Now we can learn. :)

[@maggiemellor2856]

Mine are very slow at growing what am l doing wrong?

[@seemafiji3677]

Lol@feel cheated! Same here😒

[@jonideprospero8271]

Tried it Monday with my romaine and this morning there was a sprout. I could not believe it. What a way to save money and have fun.

[@lisamcnish3287]

This is such an easy way to grow lettuce, I was amazed at how it changed everyday. I just transferred mine to a pot of soil and can start setting it outside now. Looking forward to trying the other veggies as well, thanks for the idea!

[@JennStavropoulos]

🥰🥰🥰

I like how easy the process was when going from day 1 to day 9. That was a great experience. Great video!

[@PatternBreakerTarot]

I can't wait to try! I googled...how to grow romaine lettuce and you popped up! I can't wait to see my lettuce grow!

[@marymechler8451]

Thank you for the video! Glad to hear you can plant in soil eventially as well.

[@hellenicfront564]

I loved doing these little experiments when I was a kid. So much fun.

[@Elizzybethy]

This was really cool to watch and helpful. I can’t wait to try! Thank you for sharing 🙂

[@koffinNAILS]

I've just did this week one done and also did a celery. Put them in bourbon glasses and they have took off. And I have enjoyed every day seeing it grow.

[@Eric4bz]

Soooooo I've tried this and now i've got a stem with buds trying to bloom in the span of 10 days. I never thought i'd get a sentimental attachment to lettuce in my life, but here we are. Neighbor does gardening. If it blooms I'll probably offer seeds for spring time.

[@barbaranneboyer4796]

l tried it last week and IT WORKS...thank you

[@JennStavropoulos]

You’re welcome 💖💖💖

[@cathygagen5042]

I enjoyed the video. A friend tried growing a lettuce from a lettuce, but was unsuccessful, so I will pass on what I learned from your video. Thanks:)

[@hisbeautifultruth5931]

I'm here because last night I made a salad with a beautifully bright green, crisp, perfect lettuce, and wanted to replicate it. Thanks...😊

[@JennStavropoulos]

🥰🥰🥰

[@chefmarsoilsandcuisine31]

Thank you my lettuce bolted. However, I know what to do now thank you. Starting over 😄

[@violet3627]

I just did this! I tried two methods- cutting short and leaving some leaves to encourage photosynthesis so the plant doesnt die. The latter seems to be doing better, but my growth under grow lights is much slower than what you had. Green onions work well with this method too.

[@jadegrant65]

Going to the kitchen right now ! Thank you 💞

[@rebeccabrakefield5860]

Growing in window now more spring onion tops! I just snip off new tops and use them in my cooking. I change the water daily. I now want to try with romaine lettuce after seeing your video.

[@JennStavropoulos]

Spring onions grow so fast in water!!!💖💖💖

[@megan2176]

Pineapple tops work too!! Well actually, not a lot of regrowth, but the tops can be kept alive in water and then soil. They make cute houseplants. :)

[@JennStavropoulos]

Megan wow that’s awesome!!

[@WsFood]

I didn't know it would keep coming out even if I cut the lettuce. I'm gonna have to try.👍

[@tysonl.taylor-gerstner1558]

Lettuce is always more bitter at the white part. I has many a spit moment as a child. Younger leaves do tend to be sweeter. Also there are medicinal qualities to lettuce, especially wild varieties.

[@timothyonyeso6189]

OMIGOD!! SO IMPRESSED!! Had no idea thank you for the video!!

[@1kinut800]

Yes, I have regrown some of my vegetables. I tried the romaine lettuce first, put out roots and I transplanted into a pot of soil. Rather than putting out a bunch of leaves, it grew more like a stalk with small leaves growing off the stalk. The stalk and leaves at one point toppled over so I staked it upright again. After about a month, I decided to harvest the leaves to make a very small salad. After that, the core planted in the soil seemed to go into shock, never regrew anything and eventually rotted away. I've got a few more romaine cores going, plus a lot of scallions, celery, beets and bok choy. I've got green leaf lettuce and arugula, started from seeds, growing in a small self-water planter with soil. In another self-watering planter, I'm growing spinach from seeds but it's going to take a few weeks for the spinach to get big enough to start harvesting. They're all in my windows since I live in an apartment and have no outdoor space.

[@JennStavropoulos]

That’s called bolting. I have a video on that ☺️

[@scottadler]

Lettuce is an annual plant. It wants to throw up a seed stalk at the end of its life-cycle as a means of dispersing its seeds. The leaves on the stalk are not only small, they are bitter because they are full of latex. Next year, collect the seeds when the flowers dry out. You'll get hundreds of them from each stalk -- if you are alert.

[@temitopeoshokoya4906]

I just happen to have one more lettuce left for this experiment. Thank you!

[@JennStavropoulos]

Enjoy!! 🥬🥰💖

[@karapoudel4013]

Wow great

[@ShawnHayes-1]

Wow. So cool. This will happen in my home.

[@orangelinedevil2]

My sister recently bought some romaine hearts. Your video showed me to keep a little of the leaves instead of cutting down to the stump. Maybe one day I'll update this and tell of my progress!

[@scout1710]

Please tell me what happened

[@ChristineZangari]

In the process now. Will let you know how it goes. Thank you! 👍

I’ve regrown my romaine this way and it was really cool to watch! What is the best soil you recommend for planting lettuce or veggies?

@@JennStavropoulos My now potted celery plants are looking very healthy. Thanks for asking. I was trying to find a way to upload pics of them on KZbin but sadly could not.

[@peepla7]

I started doing this like a week ago...there are some shoots...so I was looking up if I needed to put it in soil and found you, subbed, and I'm glad to know I only need water. Thank you for that also good to know that it continues to grow...so I'm going to get another stalk of romaine so I can have two growing at the same time.

[@zakiyamoreira9458]

I love this, thanks ❤❤❤

[@catherinedonoghue8368]

I feel like all the water changes would slow the growth process, I've been growing bonsai for 22 years and the most important thing with any cuttings is stability, movement will damage the little roots OK your not trying to grow a root and its not so much regrowth as just carrying on growth, Nature is just so magical and amazing. This is a fantastic way to teach kids how we never have to go hungry if we learn to grow stuff. Super cute video, I do this with all my kitchen veg scraps..

[@rochellewoods1214]

Thanks for sharing! How many times can you regrow using the same lettuce bottom?

[@faizayaqoob5190]

Thanks for sharing I will definitely try this

[@selvitr3945]

Growing at the counters

[@unbearable9770]

Just started with the lettuce. I always scrape the cutting board into a pot of dirt when I cut up a vegetable containing seeds. I now have numerous tomato plants and four avocado sprouts, and I also have an asparagus bed and my first ever fig sapling. I figure if I grow everything I can, something is bound to survive.😮
