Growing Ginger In Container...


Ginger / Halia

Ginger is very easy to grow. What i did was just sowing those old ginger from the grocery stores (i use those with tiny eye buds), just below the soil surface. Some gardener would soak the ginger root overnight before sowing, but i omit this step and it works just fine. Water it lightly until you can see the appearance of ginger shoot. I water this twice a day now just to moist it, but not with too much water because i'm afraid that it's going to rot (but i'm not sure about this...just wanna be on the safe side...:P). Need to transplant this in a bigger pot soon. Happy Gardening, fellow gardeners! :)

    1. Nadia sayangnya kalau kena potong mcm tu....kalau tanak tanam dalam pasu kena letak tanda kot....mcm letak batu bata ke keliling pokok tu or pagar kecik2 so org yg potong rumput tu perasan ada pokok yg tanak dipotong....;)

  2. Saya pun tanam dlm pasu yg diletakkan di balkoni sebab entah kenapa tikus suka sangat dgn halia saya. Halia tak cerewet, teduh pun boleh hidup. Lupa siram pun ok.
