Plant lovers go to great lengths to grow vegetables in all possible places. If you don’t plant gardens, then plant pots on a balcony or bring houseplants to fill every corner of your home.
Plant lovers are usually people who like to be grounded and close to nature. However, one such plant enthusiast took his love of plants to such extremes that he became a potter himself.

Man grows vegetables on his head, shows growth in viral video

Too twisted to understand? Let me explain. A clip has been doing the rounds on the internet in which an old man explains how grass is growing on his head. Oddly enough, the man shows his head rich in flora to prove that his words are true.
In the clip, the unidentified man explains how he puts seeds of the plant he wants to grow on his head into his hair instead of attaching previously grown shoots to his hair. The man also shows the 4-year-old grass growth on his head that he screams at, looking much like a green Mohawk.
He also demonstrates how he waters plants by simply watering them like you would any other potted plant. He explains how, without any soil in the mix, the plants grow deliciously in her tresses while her hair works in place of the enriched soil.
The man also explains how your scalp also plays a role in keeping your roots moist throughout the day. He reports that sometimes his scalp tears when the roots of the plant try to invade the space. When pulling these roots out of the scalp, the man confesses that sometimes they end up bleeding and hurting.
But that’s not all the pain you endure to keep your hair growth in good shape. The man also does not lie down and sleep. Due to the growth on his head, he is forced to sit down and sleep for a bit instead of getting a good night’s sleep.

Research has shown that hair is a great fertilizer for plant growth. In addition to needing water and sunlight, it is important for plants to obtain nutrients such as nitrogen from the soil. While legumes like plants can extract the nitrogen present in the soil, most plants do not.
That is why plants require fertilizers, whether organic or inorganic. To test whether the hair could act as a fertilizer for plants, Vlatcho Zheljazkov and his colleagues at Mississippi State University compared residual hair with commercial fertilizers. They found that while hair shouldn’t be used as the only fertilizer, it can provide the necessary nutrients for plants to grow, according to results published in HortTechnology..
