As its almost spring I thought I would post again about sprouting kitchen waste ,instead of throwing stumps of lettuces,leeks ,celery ,swede cabbages,parsnips carrots etc on the compost heap ,if youleave slightly more of a stump than normal you can often sprout them and plant them ,its how I get most of my celery for flavourings and I use cabbages and swede for cut flowers .The big white flower below is from a carrot stump
