Growing ginger in a pot is as easy as ABC. You will also have the ability to harvest fresh ginger on demand as ginger are a great source of antioxidant and antimicrobial properties which can contribute to overall well-being.
Method of planting ginger in a pot:
1: Firstly, start with a piece of fresh ginger root that has "eyes" or growth buds.
2. Get a flower pot or container that is at about 12 inches deep and wide with drainage holes underneath.
3. Get a manure or a well-draining potting mix.
4: Go ahead and plant the ginger rhizome with the eyes facing up, about 2 inches deep.
5: Plenty sunshine and warmth is very important for growth but try and avoid direct, intense sunlight.
6: water everyday but make sure the soil is moist but not soggy and you can add organic fertiliser every six to eight weeks.
Note::
If you live in cold countries , you don’t want your ginger to rot so you have to bring the pot indoors and place them close to windows to get direct sunlight if possible.
