How to Grow Endless Amounts of Ginger at Home

Selecting the Root: Begin with a fresh, plump piece of organic ginger root. Look for one with visible eyes (little bumps) from which the shoots will grow.

Soak the Root: Soak the ginger root in warm water overnight. This step helps to remove any residue that may inhibit growth and awakens the dormant buds.

Planting:

Once your ginger root is ready, it’s time to plant it. Follow these steps:

  1. Fill your wide, shallow pot with potting soil rich in organic matter.
  2. Place the ginger root on the soil, ensuring that the eyes are facing up.
  3. Cover the ginger root with about 1 to 2 inches of soil.
  4. Water the soil gently until it is evenly moist, but not soaking wet.

Provide the Right Environment
