Let’s talk green onions. Yeah, those random grocery staples that end up on top of baked potatoes and in your stir fry. What if I told you… you could regrow them right on your windowsill with almost no effort?
🧪 The Lazy Day Project Vibe:
This is one of those zero-stress, high-reward little experiments I tried during a “me moment” while the kids were asleep. I didn’t need soil, just a glass, some scraps, and a windowsill. And guess what? It worked.
What You’ll Need:
-
A handful of green onions (with roots still on)
-
A small glass or jar
-
Tap water
-
A sunny-ish windowsill
-
Your effortlessly curious self
What To Do:
-
Chop like you normally would, but leave about 1–2 inches above the roots.
-
Drop those ends in a jar and fill it with water just enough to cover the roots (don’t drown them).
-
Let the sun do its thing – Place the jar on your windowsill.
-
Change the water every 1–2 days to keep it fresh and clean.
What Happens Next?
Within a few days, you’ll start to see those little greens reaching for the sky. You can snip and use as needed—and they’ll keep coming back for more. It’s giving: ✨sustainable ✨low effort ✨a lil' bit magical.
Why I Keep Doing This:
-
It saves money
-
It makes my kitchen feel alive
Try it on your next lazy day...
Whether you’ve got five minutes to yourself, a nap window to fill, or just wanna try something that doesn’t scream “productivity,” this one’s for you.
Let me know if you try it—and tag me in your green onion growth chronicles!
