Suggestion for scallion double harvest

jonfrum
10 years ago

I grew scallions from seed for the first time this year. I knew about re-planting scallion roots to get a new or continuous harvest, so this year I tried something similar. To harvest the stalks, I used my index finger to work around the stalk down to the root, and then used a knife to cut it off as close to the roots as I could get. I then re-filled the hole with soil.

What I got out of each root was two or three new stalks, right down to the root. I found this much better than just cutting the stalks off repeatedly at the surface of the ground.
