If you’re keen on having a fresh, sustainable supply of ginger within easy reach, growing ginger in water is a fascinating and simple method perfect for beginners. This guide provides a straightforward approach to hydroponic ginger growing, making it accessible to everyone.
Step 1: Selecting the Right Ginger Rhizome
The first step is to choose a fresh, healthy ginger rhizome. You’ll want to find one with well-developed growth buds or ‘eyes.’ Ensure it’s free of rot or disease. Organic grocery stores or reputable nurseries are good places to look.
Step 2: Preparing the Ginger Rhizome
Once you have your ginger, cut it into sections, making sure each piece has at least one growth bud. Allow these pieces to air dry for a few hours or up to a day. This drying process forms a protective callus over the cuts, which helps prevent rot when the ginger is placed in water.
