Corn cobs placed in water grow into small potted plants in 7 days, amazing the neighbors

Throw a corn cob in water, and it turns into a mini bonsai in no time

If you didn't finish the corn bought at the morning market, you might as well grow it into a small potted plant. It's novel and good-looking.

We just need to peel off the outer husk wrapping the corn cob and insert half of the corn into water. Whether you want to insert it vertically or place it horizontally, it can successfully sprout.

The corn you choose doesn't need to be a specific variety, and old, hard corn is fine. If it's too tender, it won't sprout easily either. Think about it: when farmers plant corn, they all use those hard corn kernels~

Besides sprouting when inserted in water, you can also directly break the corn cob in half and insert it into soil to grow into a mini bonsai!

Throw peanut beans on the soil, and in 20 days they become a bonsai

With raw peanuts you bought, save a few peanut beans before cooking, soak them in water, and after they sprout, directly throw them on the soil and water them thoroughly.

In about 5 days, you can see tender green sprouts emerging one after another. If planted too densely, you can take out the peanut beans that haven't sprouted and throw them away.

In less than 20 days, they can grow into a bonsai, lush and especially pleasing to look at.

A month and a half after sowing, you can see the peanut bonsai gradually blooming with small yellow flowers. It is absolutely a fighter among vegetable bonsai.

Plant sweet potatoes in soil, and the leaves grow vigorously

Sweet potato, which ordinary people call di gua. If stored at home for too long, it sprouts accidentally? Hurry and bury it in soil to grow it into a bonsai!

Leave the sprouting end exposed outside the soil, and bury the other end completely in soil. In 1 week, it can grow into a small potted plant, and the leaves can also be picked to cook and eat.

In addition, we can also grow sweet potatoes hydroponically, also leaving the sprouting end outside the water and inserting the other end into water. Its growth is not inferior to soil culture.

Taro as a potted plant is comparable to dumb cane

Yes, you heard that right, taro can also be planted, and the plant is quite large. Once the leaves grow, it is comparable to dumb cane, and it's hard to tell them apart.

We throw the taro into water, with the water amount being a little more than half the height of the taro. You can find a shallow flowerpot to plant it, arrange a row, and fix the empty spaces with stones.

In one week, it will sprout, and the tender green leaves slowly unfold, growing bigger and bigger, and more and more like dumb cane.

If you don't want hydroponics, we can also grow taro in soil, burying it directly in the soil, and it doesn't need to be buried too deep. For sprouted taro, just leave the sprout exposed; for unsprouted ones, cover with 5~10cm of soil.

Moreover, soil culture grows more robustly. In two months, it can grow into a large plant, with leaves reaching half a meter long.
