celery planning

celery is neat
it is a bog plant,

there are 4 main versions of it, so make sure to order the correct seeds for what you want,
one that grows mainly seeds
one that grows mainly leaves
one that grows mainly stalks
and one that grows a big bulb

what they call celery root or celeriac is a big round thing that the stalks come out of,
they sell it in most grocery stores but many people don't know what they are,
you just peal and then slice and cook...
it is super tasty with out all the fiber of the stalks,

I like to use the seeds as a spice, and some people use the leaves,
but everyone likes different parts of it

the big thing to remember when growing it is that it is a bog plant,
it likes cool weather (not freezing) but can deal with heat if it has enough water,
so make a bog for it.

time to plan for your future celery plot
