Did you know that scallions, also called green onions, are hydroponic? That means they can grow in water alone — without the help of soil. Try this technique to save on groceries — and exercise your green thumb:
Next time you use scallions in a recipe, keep the bottom stumps and roots intact. Sit them in about an inch of water in a place where they’ll get plenty of sunshine. As long as you change the water daily and the scallions get lots of light, you’ll see growth in a few days!
