VIDEO: What Happens When You REGROW Vegetables From Kitchen SCRAPS in the Garden?


In this video, I show you what happens when you regrow vegetables from kitchen scraps in the garden. I plant out scrap onion, lettuce, potato, celery, cabbage, tomato, and carrots and we see how they grow over 3 months.

Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂

  1. It proves that at least SOME grocery store items AREN'T STERILIZED and can be regrown. In a situation where you don't have a lot of money or a SHTF situation, like with the 'bump in the road' with the Supply chain, it's good to know you can grow your own foods. If you had given it all proper spacing you would only have lost the 'tomatoes'. Plus there are the 'seeds' you could save to plant the next time. And you can regrow 'cabbage' too?! You just need decent soil or some type of 'fertilizer' to condition your soil, a properly prepared container, Sun & Water and your in business!

  2. You can grow in water.. Add a little air stone to get air to roots and hydroponic solution. I grew leaf lettuce in a hydroponic system in a tent, and it got so tall it hit the light. Didn't know what to do. I was told it would only grow for weeks, but it was growing faster than I could use it for more than a month.

  3. I love your tutorial videos and have much success , learned a lot and recommend u to my family! I really enjoy also when your wife is in the videos too! Thank you for sharing your time and your relaxed way of teaching and sharing info!! From the northwest New Jersey United States!

  4. Just stumbled across your video series and thoroughly enjoying them so have now decided to share them with my TAP communities across Australia. NOW is the time we all need to think about doing this. Thanks for all the good tips. Keep them coming cos we'll keep sharing them.

  5. Hi Mark, I do this as well. I love to see what I can grow from scraps and, like you, I do fail sometimes. But it works and that is what it is all about. So thank you for the videos as I follow you to get my results.

  6. a tomato seed from the fresh tomato needs some dormant time before they sprout. They don´t sprout as soon as you plant them. it is ususally 3-5 months afeter you bury the tomato fruit, when the spruts are appearing.
