Yes, you can regrow spring onions by planting the roots of store-bought spring onions in moist soil. This method will produce fresh new leaves within weeks.
Yes, spring onions are known for their continual harvest potential. Trim the stems just above the base, and they will regrow, providing fresh greens multiple times throughout the growing season.
To start spring onions from seeds, sow seeds directly in well-drained soil, spacing them a few centimetres apart for optimal growth. Cover lightly with soil and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Spring onion seedlings will emerge within 1–2 weeks, and with proper care, your spring onions will grow quickly, ready for harvest in about 6–8 weeks.
