Here is my indoor celery growing experiment after 20 days. I originally posted about how to start a celery stalk to grow celery indoors in this post.
I just wanted to share my celery’s progress after 20 days. As you can see there are more leaves and little stalks are beginning to grow from the base of the celery start.
I am excited about the growth of my celery start and hope the plant continues to thrive. I will post more progress in the future.
I love celery and always wondered about growing my own when I spotted this great idea about growing your own celery from a stalk end. So here is what I call my useful idea that you can eat.
First you just need the end of the stalk that you usually discard after cutting the celery stalks off which leaves the end base of the celery plant. You place the end in a can or dish with a few inches of water. Here is my can with the celery start in it. This photo was taken after one week in the water. As you can see the center has new growth and little green leaf starts are emerging.
For the full details on the experiment that 17 Apart did you can read their blog post here.
I just transplanted it into dirt at day 10. Re-plant the celery start in a pot of dirt. Cover up to the new leaf growth and water well. Here is the latest progress of my indoor celery start after re-potting the celery start today.
I will post more pictures of my celery growing experiment as my plant begins to grow. So check back in for an update on my celery growing in the coming weeks and months.
