I love reading your info and will try to use celery more now. So far I've only put it in soups. I remember years ago a farmer saying if you knew how good celery was for you, you'd keep it in you back pocket. :o)

Katkin, I like what that farmer said!!!
I love that you always read these post. Thanx!

I consume celery daily and have been for lots of years. I have grown it, but the slugs were just awful.

How to Get Rid of Garden Slugs

may be 10 to 1 diluted urine works, I got slugs in my chives before, now no more.

I use celery very often, if I want to plant, the quick way is to buy celery with the roots at the oriental market, you can also root regular celery cutting the bottom and root it in water or soil.

I make the best celery salad, I use the whole bunch of celery thinly sliced, green peppers, thinly sliced onions, meyer lemon sections, parsley and cilantro. With or without feta and egg.

Silvia, interesting idea on how to grow celery. I might try some just for fun. :o)

Started adding celery to my morning smoothies and dinner stir fried dishes. Noticed the difference in my joints already.
Starting growing the bottoms already for a continuous supply.

Put some celery in a container with some water. Started sprouting in a couple of days.
