Ginger is an essential condiment in our kitchen. Although I don't eat much every day, I can't eat much. However, the price of this ginger this year is still quite expensive. So today I will teach you a small way, you can also grow ginger at home, do not have to spend money to buy, let's take a look.
First we prepare a piece of ginger, preferably the one that has just sprouted. Use a knife to cut the tip of this tooth to it. Having this position at the tip of the tooth is more conducive to the growth of ginger in the later stages of germination. And when we cut, it must be this kind of flat mouth.
Growing ginger definitely requires some soil, but there are also certain requirements for this soil, and we better need some fluffy nutrient soil, or some sandy soil. If there is flower fertilizer or compound fertilizer in the home, you can put some on it, so that the ginger grows more vigorously and provides sufficient nutrients. Once mixed, the ginger can be planted directly in the pot.
You can bury it a little deeper, but be sure to expose the tip of the ginger bud.
Once we've done it, we need to put this little pot on the balcony. Because the balcony is still relatively good in this winter, and can receive more abundant light. Because plants, whether they germinate or grow, they need light. If the light is sufficient, it will make him grow more vigorously. The second is the need for reasonable watering.
When growing ginger, because the plant grows faster, the water requirements are also relatively high. Every time we water it, we must water all the soil, so that we can achieve the purpose of replenishing the soil. There is also the need for regular fertilization.
Because ginger is growing, in the autumn of each year, the roots need to be exposed to new ginger. Therefore, in the process of summer maintenance, some organic fertilizer should be added to the pot about every two months. Or it is the nutrient soil that can ensure that ginger absorbs sufficient nutrients. When it comes to harvesting ginger like this, you can harvest more and fatter ginger.
The above is today to share with you about the small way to grow ginger at home, some of the details that need to be paid attention to are still quite a lot, everyone must remember well.
