This morning, one of the members of my membership group shared this video:
She had started some of her own scallions a few days ago, and they were growing like crazy.
I had been wanting to try this with scallions for a while, but I just never got around to it.
Until yesterday.
I put the ends of a few scallions in some water in a small jelly jar.
They have already started to grow, especially the two on either end.
Today I needed to add some water to them.
Number 4 was in the kitchen making cookies when I was doing this.
“Oh!” she said.
“That’s vegetative propogation.”
I wasn’t quite sure what to say.
Because honestly I had never heard that term.
“It’s also a form of asexual reproduction,” she continued.
What the.
“How do you know this?” I asked her.
“That’s what we’re learning about in science,” she said.
I’m gonna be honest.
I came right into my office and Googled vegetative propogation and asexual reproduction because I had to verify her information. I also didn’t want her to know that she was saying shit I was completely clueless about.
She was 100% correct.
Of course.
Are the kids getting dumber now that they’ve been stuck at home for 53 days?
Nope.
But I think there’s a pretty good chance that I am. 🤪
Haha!!
