Growing Indoor Ginger, Sprouted From Store Bought! - 2020

Sprout Your Own Ginger From Any Store-Bought Ginger Root! Ginger is so easy to sprout, given the right conditions. The rhizomes of this plant are not only tasty and necessary in numerous recipes, but they can also be sprouted to grow entirely new Ginger plants, for free! In this video, I show you exactly how to grow your own Ginger plants simply from store bought Ginger bulbs.
This is a great project for growing indoors and for teaching kids how things grow, as well as the vegetative life cycles of root and shoot development. One of the best indoor projects that you gardeners can do as we wait for our garden beds and plots to thaw outside.
As a fully tropical plant, Ginger needs supplemental heat if you live in temperate regions or if your indoor temperatures are below 80F. Sprouting usually takes place within a week with viable bulbs, although the progress of growth at this stage can vary quite a bit. Give it a try, starting, sprouting, and growing Ginger indoors is highly rewarding, and most of all, super fun!

    I just want to say you solved my problems in 9 minutes and 28 seconds. I love ginger. I eat the stuff raw. I wasn't getting anywhere this last few weeks. The insights of temperature and lighter soil were the missing elements. I got all the stuff to duplicate your set up. By the way, don't let anyone get you down about your verbal pacing or diction. I am sick of arm chair quarter backs sitting around critiquing everyone but hardly adding to the conversation. This is the best video I've ran into thus far.

But I watched your video to make sure how to transplant it into another pot! And I got exactly the answer (and much more!) that I was looking for. I will start a couple more roots now, since they do take a while to sprout. Thanks again for everything!

Then when I go out biking with my water bottle, I snap off a small frozen chunk of the ginger root and add it to the water. It makes water tastes incredible.

Yes, would really love to hear how your ginger goes. This is the first time I've managed to get the ginger root stock to sprout. I pulled them up in April and even though they look like they where on a bit of a diet, they taste pretty good. It's nearly that time to try again. We're in our last month of winter here.

I believe that would solve the watering and heat requirements with tropical plants.

I have heard to do it in February, but that seems too early to plant it in a green house in April. I also really loved how you COVERED the tray to keep-in heat and moisture. Awesome.

    Jeff, thanks so much for the great videos. A couple of quick questions on this one. Do you pre-moisten the soil before laying the ginger on top? Pretty sure you do, just checking. And, do you continue to keep the soil misted throughout the process until they are potted up? Or, do you water from the bottom. Just set my ginger out to soak so I will be starting this soon. Thanks again from a fellow Canadian gardener.
