Slice in half a transparent plastic bottle that is clean. Your container will be the bottom half. Put some little holes in the bottom to let water drain out.
The next time you buy celery, preserve the base instead of throwing it away. Roots and fresh leaves should develop in a few days after placing the base in a shallow bowl of water, so be patient.
When the celery root begins to sprout, carefully move it to the plastic container you've already made. Submerge the roots in water while maintaining the top section of the bottle above water. Set up your fresh celery patch in a sunny position.
Maintenance and Harvesting: If you want to keep the water fresh, you need change it every few days. You will see the celery flourish in a matter of weeks. Gather what you need by simply chopping off the excess. In order to ensure a steady supply of crisp, fresh celery, remember to never harvest more than one-third of the plant at a time.
