All my good windows are reserved for growing marihuana, but I take the advice on lettuce to heart.

I don't do things like this because I don't have many sunny windows that the cats don't have access to.

I frequently grow spring onions. First in water then plant in soil when roots appear.

It is normally not worth the trouble. resprouting commercially grown veggies gives lower food value for a lot more work..

Why is that Glenn? GMO Monster foods?
@FrayedBear There are few nutrients in just water, so the plant steals the few left in its stems to make new leaves.
@glennlab not that I ever have any on hand but aren't a few drops of ammonia supposed to help?
@FrayedBear Liquid fertilizer or hydroponics mix,would be ok, but then you have the dilution measurements, household ammonia has other chemicals added that are not good for plants so that would be a hard no.
@glennlab vague memory of something that I read long ago & never followed up on.
