Fresh and aromatic greens on the table are especially good when they are grown in your own garden and not brought from the store.

But what if the beds are about to be covered with a blanket of snow?

The answer is simple – in this case, it is worth organizing a garden on the windowsill. In fact, this is what many people do, growing green onions at home during the cold season.

But only a few of them know what kind of “planting material” is best to use in this case, mistakenly believing that the larger the bulb, the more abundant the “harvest” will be.

In fact, if you want to get a lot of greens, the size of the bulb is not so important.

What's much more important is that the onion is multi-germ, and below you'll find an easy way to tell if it is.

You can tell whether the bulb in front of you has multiple embryos or not by making a cut: if you see two embryos instead of one, you can only congratulate yourself.

As a result of using such an onion, you will be able to get twice as much green feather, aromatic and crunchy on the teeth.
