Nowadays the trend of kitchen garden is increasing rapidly. People want to grow organic and chemical-free vegetables, but many times they do not know that new plants can be grown from the stems and roots of daily used vegetables. If you also want to make kitchen waste useful, then you can easily grow these 6 vegetables from their leftover parts.
Mint: fast growing plant from stalk
Mint is the easiest and fastest growing herb. Choose thick and green stalks from the mint bought from the market. Remove the bottom leaves. Place a 4–5 inch long stalk in a glass filled with water. Roots will start emerging in 5–7 days. After roots appear, transfer it to a pot with soil. Keep in light sunlight and the soil should always be slightly wet.

Re-grow Spinach Roots
Spinach is usually grown from seed, but if the root portion is left, it can produce new growth. Save the bottom 1–2 inches of spinach, including the roots. Press it lightly into the soil of the pot. Give light water daily. In a few days, new leaves will start emerging, which you can cut and use again.
The upper part of beetroot is useful
Often people throw away the tops of beetroot, but new leaves can grow from there. Cut off the top 1 inch of beetroot. Keep it in light water in a plate. Green leaves will start emerging in 4–6 days. Later plant it in the soil. This will not make new large beets, but the leaves can be used in salads and greens.
Grow coriander with roots
If the coriander root is safe, it can be planted again. Separate the root part of coriander. Fill the pot with soil with good drainage and water the roots by pressing them lightly. New shoots will start emerging in 2–3 weeks.

New leaves from radish top cuttings
Do not throw away the upper part of the radish (where the leaves are attached). Cut off 1 inch tops of radishes. Place in water or apply directly to the soil. New leaves will emerge in a few days. These leaves can be used in paratha or vegetable.
Root part of onion is real magic
Growing onions is very easy. Cut off the bottom 1 inch root portion of the onion. Let it dry for 1 day and plant it at a depth of 1-2 inches in the soil. Now water regularly. New green onions will emerge in a few weeks.
