Of all the videos on growing your own food from scraps videos that I have watched on Youtube, this video by Tikki O is the most outstanding. In this video, Tikki uses an old school, tried and true problem/ solution scientific method to answer her own question of, can you grow new lettuce from the end of a store-bought romaine stalk? The answer is yes, and how she went about finding this out on her journey of growing lettuce was an absolute inspirational delight. Tikki cuts the ends off the romaine lettuce she bought at the grocery store and basically grows leaves tender enough to eat in just two weeks. You can let the plant grow and grow and in the end, it will become a very tall, self replenishing hydroponic ecosystem with a never ending supply.
Materials:
