Growing Green onions in a cup

A few weeks ago my wife bought some green onions from the store.  We cut off the green tops and usually throw away the bottoms with the short roots.  I read somewhere that you can simply put those in water and they'll grow another set of greens no problem.  So I decided to try it out.  That was about a month a go or less.  We've since harvested another full set of green tops, and today we're getting ready to cut them off again because they're so high.

Here's a picture of how they look today, they're about 1 ft tall again, any one can do this, it's super easy.  We just used the green onions we get from the store.  I'll take another picture when we get ready to cut them once again so you can see the timing.

Could be easier.  Here's harvest number 2. 12-22-2012
12-22-2012 right after the harvest, this is how much we cut back each time
