Some new plant growth! My baby spider plant grew two new leaves:
And I found a large yellow onion sprouting in the fridge, so set it over water. It's doing lovely, providing us with cuttings to use as green-onion.

    The onion trick is great! I never thought of doing that before...I'm growing some green onions right now from see in a giant pot, but sticking an onion in water and eating the greens is great :D

    I tried growing onions last year- from sets, and it didn't do well for me. The trick with this is to keep the water level in the jar just where the roots touch. If it covers part of the onion bulb it can rot.
