Speaking of tea, here is a random yet genius little idea to re-purpose your used tea bags as seed starters! Supposedly if you place a used teabag in a shallow dish and keep it moist like you would with seed starters, it will sprout in no time. After it grows tiny leaves, you then plant the whole thing in a pot! Brilliant and nifty, isn’t it? I’m going to try it tonight. You?
P.S: Also, use, regrow and repeat and all things pineapple plant.
P.P.S: Plus, how to create your own urban herb garden.

You post the best finds. I didn't even know it's possible to grow a plant out of a tea bag.
Genious! I am going now to the kitchen to do it :D
Anonymous, aww thank you:)
Roselie, yay!
How's the result?
does it actually work? wouldn't boiling water have burnt and killed the plant? i'd love if it worked though :)
So, did it work??
you are just using this as a seed starter. not actually growing a tea plant. the tea is your planting medium...
The tea bag is just dried tea leaves. It doesn’t have seeds in it. So, you have to supply your own seed. Seems like it would grow better planted in soil with the other nutrients needed rather than tea leaves.
does it work
It works! My tea plant is growing.😊
Nice I will try
Wow!! This is amazing!! How long did it take before it sprouted? Did you keep it in the sun or a darker place? I’m excited to try this.
Very clever idea, I think I will take some tomato seeds and green pepper seeds and make my seedlings this way for my 2021 garde.
