Imagine having a fresh, crunchy celery stalk ready for your salads and snacks at any time you want. Sounds like a dream, right?

Well, it’s totally possible with just a bit of effort and a pot!

 

Step 1: Prepare Necessary Materials

Preparation
Preparation

You need to grab a good-sized pot , some potting soil, and, of course, celery.

Besides, make sure you also have some basic gardening tools handy: a trowel, watering can, and maybe even some compost for added nutrients.

 

Step 2: Choose the Right Pot

You should opt for a container that’s at least 8-12 inches deep as celery has long roots and needs room to stretch out.

It’s also important that the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, which can cause root rot.

 

Step 3: Prepare the Celery Base

When you’re starting with celery scraps, cut off the base of the celery stalks and place them in a shallow dish of water.

Also, you have to change the water every few days until you see roots starting to form.

 

Step 4: Plant the Celery

You can start with filling your pot with the prepared potting soil, leaving about an inch from the top.

Next, plant the base so that the roots are covered with soil, and the top remains slightly exposed. Then, give them a gentle pat to ensure the soil is firm around the roots.

 

Step 5: Caring for Your Celery Plant

Watering Celery
Watering Celery

Celery needs a bit of TLC to really thrive, so keep the soil consistently moist – water it regularly, but allow the top layer to dry out slightly between waterings.

If you notice the leaves turning yellow, it might be a sign of nutrient deficiency or overwatering.

In addition, celery loves sunlight, so make sure it’s getting at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day. You can also add a balanced fertilizer once a month.

Step 6: Harvest Celery

Your celery will be ready to harvest when the stalks are about 8-12 inches tall.

You just gently pull the stalks from the base or use a clean knife to cut them at the soil level. Harvesting regularly will encourage your plant to produce more stalks.
