My Celery!

Say hello to my celery sprout :) . It may sound petty to be proud of. I don't have a green thumb. I wish! The two carrots I tried to plant withered. I don't know why they wilted, they had tiny sprouts before I watered them. I hope this one would grow. I make celery smoothie almost everyday. It will.save a few bucks if we plant celeries. Not to mention, it is 100% organic.

I think they are easier to grow than other veggies. I remember my Grandfather used to plant this in many small or big boxes around our house and they would grow fast and thrive well. As to the carrots I think they are very choosy with the kind of soil to grow and when they are over watered could be fatal to them.

@Iam_jauntyjen make sure the soil is a little but loose so that they can grow bigger downwards. I tried to plant one too many years ago but I think the quality of the soil is not compatible with it.

@rsa101 I dug up rotten carrots. The shoots seemed healthy but the bottom was rotten. I don't know what went wrong.

@florelway You can grow celery from its stalk. That's what I did.

@Iam_jauntyjen we put celery stalks (sliced thinly) in macaroni salad for added texture/crunch

@Iam_jauntyjen Yes, I really don´t like it. When a recipe consists of celery, I substitute celery with another veggie.

Your celery looks great, may be you over watered the carrots. If the soil is not soft it is impossible to grow carrots.

I don't know why your carrots withered either. Maybe they went a bit too long before water got the or you were overwatering them possibly? Either can be drastic. It's a cute celery plant and looking good. I don't think it's petty to be proud of being able to assist growing things.
