Grow ginger in water is an interesting and easy way to get a steady supply of fresh ginger. It\u2019s also great for people who are just starting out. Anyone can follow this guide because it explains how to grow ginger hydroponically in a simple way.\n
Pick a fresh, healthy ginger rhizome as the first step. You should look for one with growth buds, or \u201ceyes,\u201d that are fully formed. Make sure it doesn\u2019t have any rot or disease. A good place to look is an organic grocery store or a nursery with a good reputation.\n
Take your ginger and cut it into pieces. Make sure that each piece has at least one growth bud. Let these things dry in the open air for a few hours or all day. When the ginger is dried, it forms a protective callus over the cuts that keeps it from going bad when it\u2019s put in water.\n
For your hydroponic ginger set up, you\u2019ll need the following:\n
Box: Choose a box that is wide and shallow. You can see how the roots are growing and how much water they have in clear containers.\n
Water: use distilled water or water from the tap that has been left out overnight to let the chlorine evaporate. This will make the ginger\u2019s environment healthier.\n
Support: Keep the rhizome just above the water level with pebbles, marbles, or other non-toxic, inert materials. This makes sure that the ginger\u2019s bottom only touches the water, which is important to keep it from going bad and help the roots grow.\n
You should put your container somewhere warm that gets indirect sunlight and stays around 75\u00b0F all the time. Stay out of direct sunlight because it can make algae grow in the water.\n
After following these steps, you should be able to grow ginger in water and enjoy seeing it grow in a hydroponic setting. Not only is this method useful, it also adds something new to the experience of gardening at home.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
