If you're some kind of plant wizard, you can do this at home and maybe never buy groceries again.

Growing vegetables from seeds is cool, but growing them from kitchen scraps is totally badass. Does it require some time? Yes. Is going to the grocery store easier? Definitely. But if you're crazy enough to attempt these there are a lot of benefits. Upcycling your basil stems and onion butts (heeheehee butts) will save you money and you can do it indoors. Just make sure you use fresh scraps (not stuff that's been composting for a week) and remember to pay attention to your baby future plant, making sure it has the water and light it needs.
