WEBVTT 1 00:00:03.990 --> 00:00:11.820 Dig - Justin Haggard - he/him: And so again, welcome to the week to workshop. Before we get started, we want to include a land acknowledgement 2 00:00:13.380 --> 00:00:28.920 Dig - Justin Haggard - he/him: So as an organization within a land grant institution dig the campus garden coalition at UCLA acknowledges to get really know Tonga people's as the traditional and caretakers of tongue bar that which includes the Los Angeles Basin and South Channel Islands. 3 00:00:34.650 --> 00:00:35.340 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Alright. 4 00:00:35.580 --> 00:00:40.590 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So go ahead and get started then. So for our week to workshop, we're going to be talking about 5 00:00:40.890 --> 00:00:51.870 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Re growing your food from scraps and figured we start off with some kind of fun facts about gardening gardening is good for you. Just a little extra motivation to 6 00:00:53.400 --> 00:00:56.400 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Start gardening or continue gardening, it's 7 00:00:57.420 --> 00:01:13.860 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Good for you all around. So gardening is linked to a better night's sleep the physical activity is supposed to tire you out. Which I feel like is definitely true. Especially if you're doing like weeding and stuff and then gardening requires skills to protect the brain from aging. 8 00:01:14.970 --> 00:01:22.200 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Flowers and outdoors are known to improve your mood definitely can attest to that and then gardening is a great 9 00:01:23.010 --> 00:01:35.790 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Is great for relieving stress and reducing your levels of cortisol, which is especially important right now. I feel like everybody's probably starting to get a little stressed out with midterms coming up for some of us, um, 10 00:01:36.900 --> 00:01:48.270 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Gardening is great for physical activity and you can burn up to 500 calories an hour by gardening and then lastly gardening is great for the mind and it's a mood booster could all use a little bit of that. 11 00:01:49.620 --> 00:02:01.530 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then some more gardening fun facts. These are just some things that I've like happened across that I thought were really interesting. So, in recent years, some hospitals have started to embrace like green therapy as part of their approach. 12 00:02:02.460 --> 00:02:08.100 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: To healing and it's been shown that just being in nature, improves your mood and your mental health. 13 00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:24.360 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then in Japan forest bathing is part of like their national health program and it's recommended to combat like the stress that people have from living in like Japan's big cities because a lot of people that live in the big city are like business men. 14 00:02:25.440 --> 00:02:37.320 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Living stressful lives. So it's been shown to lower your blood pressure and stress levels and they even have a little for us therapy trails, which I think is really fun. And then this picture here. 15 00:02:38.610 --> 00:02:45.180 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: It's actually a garden outside a rehabilitation center for people who have undergone like spinal surgery and stuff. 16 00:02:47.130 --> 00:02:57.270 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And so they designed the garden so that the hospital beds can be wheeled out into the garden and so that even like the patients who can't get up can still get out 17 00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:05.610 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Because it's because it does really help improve your mood, especially if you have to be inside and like in bed, a lot of the time it's nice to get out. 18 00:03:07.260 --> 00:03:25.170 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Okay, so now we'll get into the meat of it. And so in this workshop. We're going to go over foods that can be regrown methods for regrowing benefits. Every growing how to adapt it to your space, since I know a lot of you are in apartments and stuff. And then what is best to grow right now. 19 00:03:26.580 --> 00:03:35.370 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Okay, so what can be regrown from scraps. Pretty much anything you'd be surprised. There are some things that I didn't realize you could regrow 20 00:03:36.450 --> 00:03:46.830 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But you can, but today we're going to be talking about root vegetables alliums potatoes of garlic herbs greens seeds and pits. 21 00:03:50.760 --> 00:04:00.000 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So root vegetables. These would be things like carrots, beets and radishes, it's pretty much any plant where you'd be eating the root part 22 00:04:00.450 --> 00:04:10.290 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then root vegetables are what's considered top cuttings. So it just means that you're taking the top part of the plan. And that's what you're going to be regrown from 23 00:04:12.660 --> 00:04:18.990 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So if you're going to be regrown root vegetables, you're going to want to leave about an inch from the very top of the planet. 24 00:04:19.890 --> 00:04:29.070 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Just for this part and you can leave a little lesser a little more. I've seen where people only leave maybe like a half an inch or where they have like a bigger piece. 25 00:04:30.570 --> 00:04:33.030 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: I don't know how much it really affects how it grows 26 00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.970 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But you just want to leave enough that it's able to like absorb nutrients and stuff. 27 00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:47.880 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then you're going to want to cut off any food growing from the top of the plan, a lot of times with like beets and radishes when you buy them in the store. They'll still have like the leaves attached 28 00:04:48.540 --> 00:05:00.000 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But those aren't really going to do you much good for the purposes of regrowing the scraps because they tend to be too big. So the plant can no longer support them once it's like whole root system is gone pretty much 29 00:05:02.550 --> 00:05:17.640 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then if you cut off the foliage. It helps a plan to kind of recovery easier. And then you can put that village in the compost or you can use it. There are actually lots of interesting ways that you can use the tops of root vegetables in like recipes and stuff. 30 00:05:19.110 --> 00:05:26.010 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And but then once you have your scrap, you're going to want to place it in a dish or a bowl with some shallow water, it shouldn't be completely submerged. 31 00:05:27.690 --> 00:05:29.370 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But just enough that 32 00:05:30.690 --> 00:05:37.590 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: The bases covered in water. And you can see here, you can like group up similar scraps. I think that's a good idea. 33 00:05:38.430 --> 00:05:47.850 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Especially because the different kinds of scraps kind of require different levels of water, so you can put all your beat scraps in the dish. But all you care of scraps in the dish. 34 00:05:49.020 --> 00:05:50.190 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Whatever you feel like doing 35 00:05:51.930 --> 00:06:11.070 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So next up our potatoes and garlic. I'm sure a lot of you have seen you updated and garlic kind of do this on their own. If you leave them in like the pantry for too long, they'll kind of just sprout. Anyways, so you should be really easy to grow. Since they kind of want to do it anyways. 36 00:06:12.090 --> 00:06:23.220 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So for potatoes, you're going to need to take a section of scrap with at least one eye on it. So, and I are just like these little route things you can see growing here and 37 00:06:23.850 --> 00:06:31.170 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: If it hasn't spread it spread yet. You can tell it's an eye because there's kind of like a little indentation and a little mark like on the skin of the potato. 38 00:06:32.430 --> 00:06:38.910 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But I'll show you more about what that looks like to later and it should have some flesh still attached. Again, just so that can like 39 00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:47.370 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: absorb nutrients like you can't just take a potato peel and stick and water and grow it. You just need to make sure there's like still a little bit of the potato attached 40 00:06:48.960 --> 00:06:56.460 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So once you take your scrap, you're going to want to put it in the water. Cut side down with the eyes facing up because eyes are actually was eventually going to grow. 41 00:06:58.050 --> 00:07:12.570 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Like a like the stems and then each I can make a plan. So once it started to like grow some roots or you're ready to plant it you can break up each individual i and then it will give you a potato plant. 42 00:07:13.170 --> 00:07:23.700 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then for garlic, what you're going to want to do is remove the paper, a layer just like this very outer part if there's any of that still attached 43 00:07:25.500 --> 00:07:30.240 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then you can place the clove route side down in water. 44 00:07:31.230 --> 00:07:47.730 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: That's one way. I've seen it done, but it honestly like it's easier to do it the other way, which is just like you kind of let it sit around on its own in your pantry or whatever. And then you separate out the clothes and then you just plan like the individual clothes as its own plan. 45 00:07:49.290 --> 00:07:51.810 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Yeah, so you can just pop them directly into the ground. 46 00:07:54.540 --> 00:08:05.220 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Then for alliums. So these are. It's kind of like the onion family so onions green onions and leeks and things like that. 47 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:13.740 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: For these you're gonna want to leave like one to two inches from the bottom attached. So the block just being like the root part 48 00:08:15.300 --> 00:08:26.250 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then for onions. You're also going to want to remove the paper. The outer layer just because if that's still attached when you put it in water, it'll probably just get real nasty and it's not going to help your plan at all. 49 00:08:27.870 --> 00:08:39.240 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Then you're going to want to place your scrap in a glass of shallow water with the roof side down. It shouldn't be completely submerged. You can see here, it's kind of like just coming halfway up the green onion. 50 00:08:41.850 --> 00:08:50.430 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then the roots and the tops of the scratches start to grow back within a couple weeks. You can see it's kind of doing that here for the onions and then also 51 00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:55.140 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: For the leaks. I think you can actually 52 00:08:56.400 --> 00:09:02.280 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: If you don't end up growing like a WHOLE ONION back. I think you can actually kind of us like these little green parts do 53 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:04.830 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: It just tastes like a green onion. 54 00:09:08.880 --> 00:09:18.030 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then if you do end up planting out any MV is you don't cover it up completely with dirt. Just make sure to cover up the root part 55 00:09:22.830 --> 00:09:29.100 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then for herb cuttings. So this is pretty much propagation is what you're doing. 56 00:09:30.630 --> 00:09:45.600 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Even if you're getting like herbs from the store. It's kind of the same method. So you can do this with like things like baseball's launch row and meant to you're going to want to take like a decent sized piece. Probably about like four inches. 57 00:09:47.220 --> 00:10:06.360 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: From the stem of the plant. And then what you're going to want to do is cut off 75% of leaves just most of the leaves with a knife. I just recommend doing it with a knife, because if there are clean cuts than the plant will heal easier and it'll start to regrow a bit quicker. 58 00:10:07.890 --> 00:10:13.530 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So you can do this with like if you're buying like a bunch of bazell or something from the store or also if you have like 59 00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:24.480 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: A bazell plant and you want to make another one, then you can just take a cut in from it and use the same kind of method. If you propagate the things this is what you do this. It's pretty much just properties. And like I said, 60 00:10:25.890 --> 00:10:39.630 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then you're going to place the cutting in a few inches of water, but not submerged. You can see here, they put it in a cup, which is a good idea because then it can kind of rest against against the edge without like falling over into the water. 61 00:10:40.890 --> 00:10:55.200 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then once it starts to grow roots like this, you'll probably want a bit more route before you plan it out. But then once it's ready you can plan out into a pot have a fumble herb garden. 62 00:10:58.050 --> 00:11:05.670 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Yeah, I feel like herbs are especially dice for small spaces, too, because they're useful on a lot of things, but you don't need a lot of space to grow them. 63 00:11:07.410 --> 00:11:26.730 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then greens. I feel like this is the thing that I see a lot for people like free growing vegetables. So this is things like let us celery cabbage and any other leafy things with the stem still attached. I've also seen like bok choy and cabbage been regrown and 64 00:11:28.110 --> 00:11:39.030 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So you're going to want to like cut her Taro, some of the outer leaves. This is kind of optional to I've seen it both ways. I feel like most of the time. If you're using like less or salary, you're going to kind of peel off the outer 65 00:11:39.750 --> 00:11:48.000 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: outer leaves. Anyways, as you use them, but you're just going to want to make sure that you leave the core part intact, because that's where it's going to start to grow from 66 00:11:49.500 --> 00:11:52.050 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So we have a couple inches from the base. 67 00:11:53.940 --> 00:12:03.060 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: You can see here, they did like a couple inches. But again, it's the plants are very resilient. So if you don't, if you aren't able to leave that much. 68 00:12:04.260 --> 00:12:19.980 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: It should still works. And then as the outer pieces start to die. You can cut or tear them off the lettuce. I'm growing right now. The outer bits kind of started to like fall into the water and they get all nasty. So then I just take them off as they started to kind of 69 00:12:21.180 --> 00:12:25.890 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Digest to prevent the rest of the plant from running 70 00:12:27.330 --> 00:12:46.470 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then once the plant has several inches of new growth and routes you can transplant them into a container or a garden bed. But I've also seen people just like leave them in the water for a really long time and regrow like almost a full head of lettuce again. So it's very adaptable. 71 00:12:49.170 --> 00:13:00.060 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Then for seed. So you can use things like bell peppers, squash, tomatoes, you're going to want to rent off any plant matter that's still attached and seeds. 72 00:13:00.780 --> 00:13:11.880 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Especially tomatoes. It's pretty much like mostly tomato and a little bit of see like when you take them out. It might be a bit tedious to do tomatoes. But if you feel like doing it. Absolutely. Go for it. 73 00:13:13.710 --> 00:13:18.270 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So I maybe do it in like a colander or something just rinse off the seeds, a bit 74 00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:21.930 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Get any gross bits off. 75 00:13:23.250 --> 00:13:27.300 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Because if there's plant matter still attached to it when you're driving or 76 00:13:28.710 --> 00:13:40.890 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Or things like that, then as it decomposes. It might make your seasonal gross or could even like make the seed start to rise as well. So it just best have nice clean seeds to start with. 77 00:13:41.970 --> 00:13:47.160 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then when you are ready, you can start them in pots containers are in the ground. 78 00:13:48.450 --> 00:13:51.750 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: To drive them. I do it. 79 00:13:52.830 --> 00:14:03.090 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: I just put like a paper towel on like a cookie sheet and then I spread this heat out so that way if I need to move them around. If they're kind of like if they end up being an inconvenient location that I can just pick them up. 80 00:14:03.870 --> 00:14:10.140 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Put them in a better place. And then once they're completely dry, you can save the seeds in a cool, dry place. 81 00:14:11.610 --> 00:14:16.380 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: I just do it in like a Ziploc bag, whatever you have is fine. 82 00:14:17.910 --> 00:14:23.220 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then first seeds, the fresher, they are when you take them out of the plan, the better. 83 00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:39.030 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: At least for me, I know. Like all end up using like half of bell pepper and the other half will sit in the fridge and the seeds will get all nasty because they've been sitting in there with like all the moisture and whatever else is happening inside the bell pepper. 84 00:14:40.050 --> 00:14:47.400 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And then it's just a bit harder to dry them out and also I think it kind of reduces their chances of germinating once you plant them. 85 00:14:49.650 --> 00:14:58.500 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: pits. This is another really popular one. So I'm can do avocados mangoes. I think I've even seen it with stone fruit. And then I think 86 00:14:58.950 --> 00:15:08.220 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Emily's going to be talking about how to grow trees from pits. I believe in her workshop. I don't know what week that is but 87 00:15:08.970 --> 00:15:17.340 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Just keep an eye out for it. I guess if that's something you're interested in. And so before you do anything with the pet. You're going to want to clean it with water. 88 00:15:18.570 --> 00:15:20.910 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Just, just water is fine. You don't 89 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:30.570 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Want to really like scrub it or anything. It's just to get off like any residual plant material. Don't take off like the outer layer, either. 90 00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:39.150 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Because that kind of protects the pit from like from infection and decay. 91 00:15:41.490 --> 00:15:49.860 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So you're going to want to place three to four two pigs in the pit top side up. You can see this little diagram kind of shows you what the top and the bottom look like 92 00:15:51.330 --> 00:16:01.560 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So top side up the top should be exposed to air and then the bottom of the pitch should be covered in water. So you can see here, these are to fix to prop it up in 93 00:16:02.910 --> 00:16:10.110 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: An old water bottle which is a great idea to if you have any like old plastic containers that you want to use. 94 00:16:11.310 --> 00:16:21.630 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Especially if you don't have a lot of like bowls or cups that you can just have indisposed for like a month, then it's a good idea to like reuse plastic containers. 95 00:16:22.290 --> 00:16:29.040 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But if you're going to do. I just make sure they're like clean before you start so that other things don't end up going in there. 96 00:16:30.870 --> 00:16:40.860 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And if you do decide you want to grow something from a pit. Just be aware that it's gonna be a really long time before you see any like fruit from it. 97 00:16:42.690 --> 00:16:54.060 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: But I've heard the avocados make a good house plant. So in the meantime while it's growing and gathering up strength can just keep it in the corner. I'm sure it'd be nice to look at, um, 98 00:16:55.890 --> 00:16:58.140 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Then kairos, did you want to take it. 99 00:16:59.220 --> 00:17:07.320 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): Yeah, so something that's really cool that you can regrow it's a pineapple and I didn't know that before that, like, I really want to try that now. 100 00:17:08.790 --> 00:17:18.300 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): So what you do is you cut off like the top part of the pineapple, like the green leafy part and then you put it into water using toothpicks. 101 00:17:19.470 --> 00:17:37.980 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And then after like two to three weeks, you should be able to pot it and you should water every day and you can keep it inside or you can keep it outside. As long as it's like sunny out and this also takes a while to 102 00:17:39.660 --> 00:17:45.270 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): Have fruit. It takes about like two to three years, but like I think it'd be worth it. 103 00:17:50.580 --> 00:18:05.460 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Okay, great. And then now I actually wanted to show you some of the plants that I've been growing. I've been rewriting a few scraps and we'll get back to why to regrow food scraps in a minute. 104 00:18:08.100 --> 00:18:08.490 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Okay. 105 00:18:10.260 --> 00:18:12.870 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So it might become hard to see, but we're gonna try 106 00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:22.920 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So I've been regrowing I have what I have here, I have carrots, lettuce, celery, 107 00:18:24.660 --> 00:18:38.280 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: And a green onion and most of them. I've just started to regrow pretty recently. So it's hard to see the growth, but I'll try. I'm will turn off my background here that might help. 108 00:18:46.950 --> 00:18:47.790 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Okay, there we go. 109 00:18:52.260 --> 00:19:03.720 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So here I have my carrot scrap do a little reveal for you. You can see the top here, there's like little green with growing out and starting to like, get some little shoots 110 00:19:05.160 --> 00:19:18.270 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: I'm really excited about, um, it's not the prettiest right now. But so, so I think it's, it's a little cute. It's a little cute having those tiny shoots growing from the top and 111 00:19:19.380 --> 00:19:22.170 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Then I have my lettuce. 112 00:19:23.370 --> 00:19:31.860 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So here you can actually see, it's like growing some new leaves and you can see as kind of coming out of the center here and that's why it's important to 113 00:19:33.360 --> 00:19:38.940 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Keep the core intact, but I figured that happens. Anyways, for the most part. 114 00:19:40.020 --> 00:19:41.130 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: When you're using lettuce. 115 00:19:42.210 --> 00:19:54.030 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Little tiny leaves which is exciting. It looks pretty gross. There is bits that are like starting to die, but um but so far. They don't seem to be like, hurting the plan at all. 116 00:19:56.040 --> 00:20:04.800 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: So yeah, and then I have salary and green. I need to the salary. I just put in water. So it's not really doing anything yet, but the green onion. 117 00:20:05.850 --> 00:20:12.750 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: I thought this was clever. I put it in a little shot glass FYI. This is not my child glass. I just like to make that disclaimer. 118 00:20:13.350 --> 00:20:26.100 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: I'm at home. So it's my parents little shot glass, but because they're kind of small, and like might fall over. If you put them in like a bowl or a tray or something. I just put it in a little shot glass because it keeps it up itself. 119 00:20:30.120 --> 00:20:34.710 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Yeah, I think that's all that I have to show you. I'll go ahead and share the screen again. 120 00:20:39.300 --> 00:20:40.140 Where to go 121 00:20:44.820 --> 00:20:47.550 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Sorry technical difficulties here. 122 00:20:49.800 --> 00:20:50.700 Dig- Lauren Olson-she/her: Okay.

So why should you regrow food from 126 00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:08.850 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): One advantage is that you can save money and place because you already bought your produce right you can just regrow it and have more food to eat. 127 00:21:10.470 --> 00:21:20.190 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And even if you fail. Like it doesn't really matter. You didn't like you didn't go out of your way to buy like more seeds or anything. So you can just try again. 128 00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:39.750 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): Also, it's really fun like looking at something grow from like a tiny, tiny little like scrap to like a whole whole vegetable again. And it's really good for small spaces because you don't need like a lot of room from us to them and you can do it without a garden. 129 00:21:45.180 --> 00:21:55.770 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): Okay, and then some tips to make sure you get the best results.

So you're only growing like what you want to be growing 130 00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:09.300 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And try to change the water like semi frequently every one to two days and change the dish every few days. But really, like, that's, that's just a suggestion, you don't. You don't really have to do that. 131 00:22:10.290 --> 00:22:18.720 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And place the dish in a warm and sunny area but not like too hot, where it'll like kill the plant from getting too much sun. 132 00:22:19.740 --> 00:22:30.120 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And you can transplant the plant. When you see new growth for root vegetables that would be new leaves and for other plants, I'd be regrowth. 133 00:22:31.320 --> 00:22:36.240 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And the bigger the plant, the bigger the rich should be before it can be taken out of the water. 134 00:22:41.460 --> 00:22:44.940 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): If you're in a small space, you can. You don't have to wait. 135 00:22:46.200 --> 00:23:00.090 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): The entire plant to grow, you can harvest the leaves are just the tops of the plants use one thing you can make with that is like Carrot Top pesto and we have a cooking workshop later where you can learn about how to cook that food. 136 00:23:02.280 --> 00:23:08.400 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): You can harvest the leaves the greens.

Once they have roots and you foliage plant them in the ground. 140 00:23:39.210 --> 00:23:44.220 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And any of the scrubs to be planted out. But if you're going from pits, you should probably wait a little longer. 141 00:23:47.220 --> 00:23:54.630 Dig- Kyros Yip (he/him): And make sure once you plant them.
