Grow your own ginger? It’s a piece of cake!

Step 2: Cuttings 

Once you have found a good piece of ginger, the cutting can begin. Cut the rhizome into pieces 2.5 to 4 cm wide. Make sure the piece has at least one tubercle, but preferably a little more. 

 

Step 3: Planting 

Fill a suitable pot with potting soil. Make a small dent in the potting soil for the stemmed ginger. Place the piece in your potting soil, buds facing up. Then cover with a thin layer of potting soil. 

Step 4: Grooming 

Give the planted ginger a little water every day. Keep doing this until leaves can be seen, then water the plant occasionally. After a while, your ginger will be big enough, and you can make your own tea from it or use it with cooking. Good luck!
