Do you grow anything?

I just learned something recently about growing green onions... Normally I grow them outside in a pot. Water, dirt, air, and sunlight. But now I know there is another way to do it. And it requires only a baggie in the fridge.
Yep, you read that right. I cut the roots off. Then I put those roots into a plastic baggie. I put that baggie into the fridge and left it there for a month or two. When I went to pull that baggie out again, I found they had grown again. Oh the applications I can use this for...Especially since I'm the kind who kills things more than grows them.
So what do you grow? And how do you do it? I, personally, have plans to one day grow roses, lilies, and orchids. And if my thumb will turn green - tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, and maybe strawberries. Good to aspire, right?

  1. But they aren't green. I guess sunlight does that. Do they taste the same?

    1. They don't taste as strongly as the outside ones do, but they smell good and the taste isn't bad.

  2. Thought of something? Is it safe to eat? Full vitamin, etc?

    1. Its safe. I don't know if it has the same nutritious value as other kind. But if you can't grow things outside, its an alternative.
