VIDEO: How To Grow An Onion From An Onion Bottom! (2019)


Regrow your own onion bottoms! In this video, I show you and prove to myself that you can grow a new onion bulb simply by cutting off the inch at the base of a regular onion bulb (root end) and sticking it either in water, or directly into moist soil.

Most people know about this trick with green onions and leeks, but to be able to do this from just a regular onion bulb? That’s a game changer! No more seeds or onion sets for this guy!

**UPDATE**
Check out the 5-part vlog where I’m documenting in real-time the process of re-growing your own onion bulbs from existing onion slices!: https://youtu.be/k3IaAtZBb9Q

  1. Do each one of those shoots form an onion under them? So, if you had two shoots you would have to get two onions out of it? Three shoots and you get three onions? And can you separate those shoots and plant each one?

  2. Hi, I've just started to try this with some pieces of onion I scavenged from my bucket of veggy waste that I normally put through a liquidiser before adding it to the compost bin. If I get two shoots appearing like you have at 13:31, I'm going to try to cut them apart and see if it produces two onions. I think it will 'cos you don't have onions that have two stalks.

  3. I really want to thank you for your video it's going to help me cuz I can't afford much in the grocery store anymore not on social security only thank you again I'll be staying in touch with my progress

  4. A big g'day from Australia. now I tried this about 4 days ago and I'm already getting green shoots thank you so much for the information .
