I absolutely LOVE this channel. You provide with so much quality information on items found in our local supermarkets that we may begin with. As a woman of Caribbean descent, ginger is a must-have in the house for its many properties in addition to taste.
Thanks so much Cicily! So nice if you to say. Glad you like the channel and glad you love Ginger as much as I do! It really is a must-have, no question.
Good timing, I have just been thinking about growing ginger!!
Right on Lisa. I think I'm going container Ginger from now on..so much easier!
Wow. I’ve learned so much with this single video. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching Louisse, awesome of you to say!
Also, your presprouting ideas gave me ginger success. Thanks!
Awesome Amy, love to hear it! 😃

Are the five gallon grow bags big enough for ginger root? Your link brings up the five gallon bags. Thank you!
I use the 5 and the 7 gallon bags no problem Len.
Would love to see your harvest at the end of the growing season!! Awesome videos thanks for sharing! What part of Canada are you in? I’m in Toronto, Ontario growing indoors year round.🙏🏻🥰🇨🇦
Thanks Leanne! I'm in Victoria, BC. I should have both a winter (indoor) and summer harvest video for this year. :-)
Where part 2 of this video also thanks for information also people don't talk about the bugs it track too
Great episode again. In your future video, would you explain about which
vegitable is good ph level, and rhe fertilizer numbers such as 5-10-10, 0-20-0 something like that. Thanks. .
Thanks Yuki! For sure I need to do a fertilizer video! Cheers!
Do you have a video on how to harvest and replant the ginger ?
Hey Romy, definitely have a harvest video when the ginger is ready at the end of summer! As for a replant video, I made one earlier this year here: th-cam.com/video/62Cgcdh7hMA/w-d-xo.html
Great video 👍
I tryed it my self but no luck. Maby next time
Heat and moisture Robin...that's the key. I pre-sprout though.....can you imagine the wasted soil in those biggie grow bags if the Ginger didn't grow? Ugghh!
I started some 2-3 months ago. It finally sprouted about 2 weeks ago. It's not all that warm where I live, and I don't have a root warmer (not sure what they're called). Now it's growing pretty fast, though. It's 6-7 inches tall.
Debbie J.
That’s great to hear that it’s growing 👍
@@debbiej.2168 Nice! Keep us updated!
Greetings. Showed my mom this video. She wanted me to type, when she was younger back in the 40s she traditionally dry farmed with her grandparents. She liked this post 👍👍 and is now interested in planting ginger. She says what you do is a form of art as she is also a lifetime artist and sculptor by traditional family values. We look forward to part two. Have a great evening and week.
That's amazing Niki! Is she still an avid gardener? So cool, thanks for sharing. I'm keeping the Ginger in the greenhouse for about 10 days to 2 week, then I'll move it to the sunniest part of my deck. Should grow good! Cheers!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms 🍅 She sends good morning greetings. She chose the other path of painting pottery to support the family while we grew up living in the city where i was born and raised. I think of how much $ she could have saved if she also dry farmed corn, beans, and squash while taking care of us kids. Lol. Plus apartment living had very little space until we moved into a house. Before my brother was diagnosed. She was proud to see him take up gardening with his son. Today, she is helping, along with my nephew, with our little startup garden and enjoys it. I call her my feisty survivor for at 77 years young, she still has the energy of herself at 35. And, after watching this post, she wants to try it out so we are heading out to get ginger and the bucket after breakfast. Thanks for the extra info and have a great gardening day and weekend 👵👩
@@nikidocious6433 That is beyond awesome Niki! I'd love to hear about the success at the end of the summer! :-)
Hey when is the next ginger video coming!?

How long does it take to grow ginger? I have ginger growing in some plastic containers since June and they're looking pretty good but how do I know when to harvest?
Hey Yaniris, length of time is somewhat irrelevant...the Ginger will tell you when its time to harvest when the shoots begin to turn yellow and fail. Then you know!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms thank you
Hi Jeff
I live on Southern Vancouver Island as well, what time of year is the best to start growing/sprouting Ginger?
Thanks.
Alan, what's up man! Ginger is tropical..so it has to be grown NOW for us. I try to sprout it in March to pot up in May, to then plant in June in its permanent spot. These guys however were accelerated sprouted in May and now just being potted up. It needs 2-3 months to get the best and biggest root growth, and as you know, by October that'll be impossible with our fall weather.
Great video. I've always wanted to try young ginger.
Why do you put newspaper at the bottom of your fabric pots?
I like it for just a tiny bit more water retention and to keep the soil off the fabric, giving it a little more longevity.
Thanks for the info! I'm going to try to grow ginger again. My ginger always seems to rot on me.
Try pre-sprouting and definitely don't over water once you plant it in its permanent spot.
What month should I presprout my ginger? I live in NE, PA.
January, February, or March
I can't find part 2 for the ginger or the turmeric video's? does that mean this method didn't work?
As Ginger and Turmeric are really only grown this way from rhizomes, even commercially, it most assuredly, works, LOL. Filming and timing of living crops is harder than most people think. I haven't captured enough footage of the 2nd stage yet to put out the video. When I do, I will.
Do you water the ginger in the pre sprouting period?
Hey Josee, no, I don't. The mix stays quite moist with my little dome over top. I guess if the sprouting period takes too long you should water, but generally I don't.
The Ripe Tomato Farms another question, Do you specifically need a heating pad or can I leave it in front of my south facing window ? The room temperature is always between 75 and 80 degrees?
Where is part 2?
Hi deAr. I love our Facebook group. And I m always there.
But after I wrote some comments about lomi advertising. I received an sms that I was removed by owner . Please help me go back. This is not fair. And against right of speech. I am not the one who should remove.
I'll check it out Pari! I am not removing anyone but spammers. As long as no one is spamming links. I never remove them. I'll go check and see what happened!
I looked and it says you're not blocked or anything. It says you're not a member of the group, but that wasn't our doing. Strange!

Is there an update to this video? I am just about getting ready to plant in my ginger in 20 gallon grow bags when it gets a little more warmer here in AZ. You video was very helpful. Hoping to hear from you. Thanks!
Hi I like your video. Where exactly is part 2? I would like to see the growing process and harvest. Thanks
Not mulching is a felony in all states. Lol
Thanks for the information, I’ve successfully sprouted some ginger, now it’s time to transplant. I’m glad I watched this video!
Right on, you guys got this! Report back with your success!
My zone is 5b when should I try to sprout my ginger and when is it's best to take out. Thank you.
Hey Michelle, I would sprout my ginger 8-10 weeks before my last frost date. Wait until the temperatures hit 70F and then its good to go outside. Full sun, lots of water, but the plants don't like wind for some reason. :-) Cheers.
did u make a pt 2?
I just came across your video less than 10 minutes ago. I am now subscribing to it.
So awesome Garry, much appreciated, glad to have you aboard!!
Hello my friend. Do you think containers would also work for Awapuhi ginger? There is little info available for growing in cold climates. I'm successful with culinary ginger in containers, inside in cold weather. I'm zone 7 Delaware.
P.S. any suggestions for getting turmeric to break dormancy?
Definitely....bigger the better if you can. For Turmeric, dormancy is broken by heat and moisture....it take longer than Ginger though, no question.
Thank you so much for this. 👏👏🥰️I am using grow bags for the first time. I am in Australia, beach area, and it is winter here. I will pre-start my ginger,🌱 inside now although we have a mild winter here, at times it get pretty cold. Great information 👍 enjoyed it all ! 😊😉😘🙏 Namaste
Right on! Thanks for joining us from the other side of the world (technology is amazing)! Wishing you great sprouts and a killer harvest in December/January!
Where the heck is part 2 ? :)
I'm glad that TH-cam suggested this video. I think it's reading my thoughts at this point. I will be starting my ginger as soon as this storm passes through Georgia.
Right on Suzanne, best of luck!!
Hey! love your video on this! i have pretty much the same DYI soil mixture that you use, so as it pertains to growing in containers, at what point and when in the ginger plants life cycle do they need soluble fertilizer? and do they need to be top dressed again with an insoluble fertilizer? I've read online that it needs different levels of N, P, & K at different times in its life cycle but i cant find 1. what are the life cycle stages and timing if them 2. specifics as to what nutrients/ ratios and at what life cycle it needs it. ...I only know that it should be a balanced NPK (by whatever pre-made fertilizer or DYI components) when it's ready to be potted and toward the end of gingers life cycle, it needs less N so it can focus on roots, not leaves (which makes sense). But everything in the middle im very confused about and ive spent hours trying to research this. i would REALLLY be SOOO grateful if you could advise me on NPK/nutrients/soluble/insoluble/lifecycle stages/when to add more compost, and anything else im missing between potting and harvesting. Side note: i do not have manure or a compost bin. I buy compost all the time so thats no problem (let me know if there is one you recommend if it matters?) but if you were going to suggest manure- what could i do for an alternative? - i know this is a loaded question lol but i cannot find answers on any of this stuff anywhere and im at the point were i REALLY need to know so Im really hoping that you or someone else with as much success & experience can help me 🙏
Hey, right on, it really is a great mix! For me, when I plant in a bed like this, I don't fertilize. My soils are amended with compost every year and the need for additional inputs is very low. If this was a pot, you could definitely do a liquid organic solution or even a seaweed extract mid growth cycle (2-3 months) to ensure the plants have enough juice to produce the biggest rhizomes....I also make this DIY fertilizer from weeds every year...it would work great if you wanted that extra boost!: th-cam.com/video/Lkc-bcgvr3U/w-d-xo.html
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms yes thabk you for replying! And yes, your DYI fertilizer is THE best. I started using it a fe months ago and I'll never go back🥰!!! And thank you, I'll take a look!
When will you be giving us an update and show us some pictures of the onions you're regrowing? You started them over 3 months ago and a lot of us are wondering what's happening with them!
Soon as I can. I have 32 videos partially filmed at various stages because filming living things over periods of time is logistically and infinitely harder than YouTubing other things! I'm on it though...I look at them every day.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Awesome! I know a few of us are eager to see if they're growing an actual onion or just sprouting green tops!
@@sherrylynn4671 Exactly! Same with the Leeks.....I have bed after bed of them, trying to max out the white section! Cheers Sherrylynn!
Great video. I have couple ginger plants myself but they seemed to have stopped growing (stunted) and they have plenty of space, they're only like 12" tall.
Still green shoots? Not too much wind?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Yes, still that pretty green and very slight to no breeze for the last couple weeks.
@@jojobee5486 Nice and warm? Do you think the soil needs a boost? Some liquid organic fertilizer perhaps?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms yes nice and hot is more like it, I'm in the Bahamas so it is really hot and dry at the moment......but I will try some fertilizer, do my best to keep the soil moist, and see what happens...ty so much
Holy cow! I am growing ginger!! I have 6 plants and some with leaves.What do I do?
Is it too late to start peppers now?
Hey Angela, it all depends on where you live. You need about a month for germination and growing to transplant size, then about 2 months (maybe more) of 80F plus weather to get flowers and fruit. If you can get that, you could grow peppers. If you have access to starter plants now, then most definitely you can still grow. Cheers!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Thanks! I live in Maryland Zone 7 and it is warm here---actually hot. I have two ginger roots that are putting out sprouts, so I am wondering if I should put them in soil to see what happens.
@@angelasgardensense8128 definitely! If you already have sprouts get those puppies planted up! Should be plenty of time for a harvest!
You can regrow store bought ginger and turmeric. Just make sure its organic so there is no growth/root inhibitors on them. But soaking them over night can help you chances if they have been treated. The ginger has long slender leaves. The turmeric is wide leafed. Easy to tell which is which in the same container. Mine are year 2... wintered over in a dry protected area on my patio. I may see blooms this year on the plants, all have re-sprouted. Cant wait.
