Growing scallions in pots at home is convenient and economical - just snip a little when cooking and you don't need to buy any

Choosing seedlings for potted scallions: For growing small scallions, you can simply buy ordinary untreated ones sold for eating from the market. When buying scallions, choose ones with emerald green, fresh leaves; most importantly, the roots must be intact and a little soil should be kept on them.

Preparing potted scallions: Cut off the upper leaves for eating and don't just throw the remaining roots into the trash. When cutting, leave a little more of the white part, which makes planting easier and helps them survive more readily.

Preparing pots for scallions: Potted scallions are not fussy about the pot - any container will do as long as there is enough space. If you have some flowers and plants at home and there is room, you can plant them directly together, which saves space and can also help defend against pests and diseases.

Planting potted scallions: Dig a hole in the pot, put in the scallions, cover with some soil, count 1-2-3-4-5, and you're done. To make later care easier, press the soil flat with your hand so the roots don't become exposed when watering.

Caring for potted scallions: After planting, water thoroughly and place in the sun. As long as it is not below 0°C in winter, the survival rate is over 90%. After a week, the scallions will grow new shoots and should be fertilized in time. For home-grown scallions you eat yourself, it is recommended to apply organic fertilizer.

Scallions grown this way in pots are not quite the same as the Welsh onions we eat in winter; they mainly retain the fresh fragrance and tenderness of scallions, and are suitable for stir-fries and cold side dishes.
