Frugal old lady

Well, I've been really busy with my studies and business but as I was gardening the other day I was remembering a lovely elderly lady who told me that she could get three carrots from one seed plus seeds for future crops....impossible you think, well think again.
Other advice this lovely lady had given me had proven valuable so I decided to test this one out.
What she does is simple:

1. the first carrot is grown from seed as per normal
2. the second carrot is grown from the trimmed carrot top, which is planted in soil and kept moist until it grows
3. the thrid carrot is grown same as the second
4. the seeds are grown from the regrown top....yet again.

She does the same thing with spring onions by replanting the base with roots. I wonder what else could be regrown this way.
My garden is growing like crazy right now....even feeding the tots fresh peas from out of the garden...they call them green lollies!

Time to pull out the sunburn remedies:

• Calendula ointment
• the juice from aloe vera leaves
• cucumber slices
