After buying an onion and using up most
of it, I'd often end up with a small piece towards the root end of
the bulb. This guy often ended up toward the back of the fridge in a
container of some sort where it would languish for a long period of
time.
On day, while I was cleaning out my
fridge, sure enough there was an onion piece escounched in a
container in the back. I noticed that a green shoot had emerged from
the center and on impulse, planted it in a small pot of soil. I
watered it, placed it on a kitchen window sill and then forgot about
it.
A week later, I noticed that the son of
a gun was growing like there was no tomorrow. I water it again and
moved it outside to catch some direct sun. Then, after about three
weeks, viola, I had a batch of mini onions to enjoy!
