My first onion, maybe! π§ π€
I'd been watching my landlord grow so many cool things since quarantine began; corn, potatoes, tomatoes, garlic, green onions, lettuce, the list goes on! I'd always wanted to someday grow my own herbs and maybe even have a little garden with an avocado tree. She offered me one of her pots and encouraged me to try to grow something. So, this is my first-ever attempt at growing food! I've never succeeded with plants; the closest I've gotten is with succulents and even those didn't look too fresh! βοΈ Wish me luck!

I'm not sure if it's doing well. It's become much darker and it hasn't been growing very much. Black thumb, stay away please π ...You can also see where I touched that leftmost shoot too hard π

I spy little mister onion peaking through! He found his way to the top!

I perched this onion on a makeshift paperclip stand, and left it to root in some water for the past few days. Look at those wispy hairs around the roots... I wish I knew more about what's happening there, haha! And today I've planted it in a pot, buried completely under the soil!

A couple of my landlord's pots thriving, serving as my inspiration :)
