This is one of the best how-to videos I have seen. The information is on-topic, well rounded, and sufficiently complete while being relatively concise. Thank you for following through on the video to the end. I have seen so many videos implying they are a how-to of one sort or other, but just show a person starting some project, telling what they intend to do and what they expect to happen rather than showing what is done and what the results were. Not only did you show the full cycle for the selection and care of the plant, but you covered storage and use. This was well done and rightly done.
@@CHerCreationsThank You SOOO Much for this info, its helped me a Great Deal too!! This is my 1st year raising Lemongrass & I Love the tea, so far waiting for the bottoms to grow big enough. My plants have a purple color to the bottom halves, so wondering if its a different variety. I got it in a single pot & have divided it in several. I had it in the ground all summer, then brought it out & put in 1 pot in dirt & 3 vases with water. Should i add some kind of fertilizer to the water, or just pot them separate in soil? I use Miracle Grow soil & Miracle Grow plant bead fertilizer too. Thanks SOOO Much for the Great Info & Post💖💗
This is my 2nd year growing lemongrass from seed. I am watching your video now. I had no idea it could be propagated from last years stalks which I did not harvest. I didn't know how to use it. Your video is excellent! I learned SO much. Very informative. I will now be subscribing to continue learning from you. Thank you from the Olympic Peninsula of WA state
You probably posted the best lemongrass cultivation video to ever be seen on the web. I've been growing lemongrass for years in Texas zone 9a. I've always harvested throughout the summer and tried to winter it over under heavy mulch (with many failures). Now I'm excited to try it your way. The knots and the freezer tips are an eye opener. I'll have to quadruple my crop next year just to have enough to try everything. Many thanks!
Wow! Thank you for sharing your family skills with us. This is so much easier then taking inside for the winter in Zone 5. I can't wait to try try it. 🤗🤗
I'm in Texas zone 8a. This will be my first attempt to grow lemongrass. Thank you for the Texas growing tips for our unpredictable winters. A few years ago I had plants that I really wanted to protect from an expected freeze, so I put some outdoor incandescent Christmas lights all around the garden area and made a goofy looking tent over the garden with white, nonporous greenhouse fabric. Everything survived that winter.
Woww what a Great idea!! I know TX can get cold in winter. That is a Awesome!! I might try that in NC. I brought mine all in & cut it back & saved it all for tea. I dried in a large vase in my kitchen & turned it over a couple times, worked great! I may try the lights. But we have a screened in porch & made vinyl covers for the screens & my husband made them to snap on the frames of the sections. Its made a nice greenhouse connected to my livingroom, so i can go see my plants anytime & i have a little standing heater to warm it up on cold mornings, so far its worked good in Dec. We'll see how Jan. & Feb. Go!! Great comments on this Site its my 1st time growing Lemongrass & I Dearly Love it!! I am also growing Collard greens & broccoli & plan to eat those greens this winter.
This is exactly how I remember my father doing lemongrass and I had tried for sooooo long to find the old ways, even as he said my grandmother did this. Seeing this video brings back so many memories. My dad being from Guam, now deceased, this means more to me than you'll ever know. Thank you.
I grew it in sand in Dubai. We do not have a lot of soil here, but man this is miracle, it turned the sandy soil into sandy loam. The soil was rich and dark. when I was dividing them in two couple of new chunks to plant them separately. I used a lot of it for Indian cooking and making tea with it. They are pretty easy to grow. The grass was from Thailand in the supermarket. Because we are hot and humid it grew perfectly. Its beautiful too in pots like a bouquet. I think the Indian variety and Thai variety are slightly different. I tasted both of them and they are different in taste not major difference but that sweetness fennel like smell and fragrance. I personally like both of them. I am from India by the way. We use it in curries a lot, specially with coconut cream in gravies. P.s I did the same water method to get the roots and them planted in sand. I think this love high drainage minimal fertilizer. but it grow very quickly.
@@rimabarve6286 Its the same plant lemon grass ( did not knew it when I wrote that comment but I specially tasted it during my visit to India). There is no difference in taste and growth. The lemon grass we buy is Thai along with those tiny chilies birds eye or something..I buy it for soups because I love the Thai lemon grass flavor red curry, there is a green version of it but I love those two and I learned the recipes online and I cook it at home with chicken, beef. In India its the same plant I tasted this in tea and Its the same plant. Maybe people grew and spread them by cuttings probably I traveled to Tamil Nadu/ puducherry and found it in garden where I was staying in the resort. I grew this grass in sandy saline soil in Dubai and it actually made a huge difference in the soil condition when I removed it to plant somewhere else.
My mum's 10 year old lemongrass survived Texas' mild winters and hail. It grew in abandon since my sister forgot about it. Its grass so it loves the heat and survives some drought. In the Philippines, it grows with abandon revelling in the summer sun and grows into a large mound if left unchecked. The cats and dogs would loveto munch on them when they feel sick and vomit them there after. Nice video 😄.❤
Thank you for making this video! I appreciate that it's clear and informative! The progress updates from week to week and month to month were especially valuable to see :)
Thank you SO MUCH! The information you and your mom shared here is invaluable!! I had my So first taste of Lemongrass in 1997! I live here in Baton Rouge, LA and about 10 blocks from the Mississippi river... so humidity is NEVER an issue LOL!!! My wonderful friend made Thai Chicken Soup for me when I got the flu... and I simply fell in love with this amazing flavor... she had a huge Lemongrass plant that was like a hedge... I had NEVER seen this plant, never even heard of it...but BOY I loved it... ! So I went to the only store I could find here it was Vihn Phat Market where they had a couple of bundles.... and I was HOOKED! My son opened a small cafe here in 2009 which I ran for 9 years... and my customers loved homemade soups... so I started making Asian Chicken Noodle Soup! The customer base LOVED it!!! Since retiring I have wanted to grow Lemongrass... but information was few and far behind ... what your site has given me is TRULY worth it's weight in gold! I will use your growing advice and ... be happy to the end of my Days!
I always chopped the trimming from lemon grass and add as mulch back into the roots. I never added any external fertilizer. This is one of the best fertilizer production, it acts as conditioner for the soil.
Another great lemongrass video! I appreciate you including the portions of your mom or grandma talking while planting/working as their voices sound very soft and sing-song.
Beautifully done video. So thorough, and covering everything we could possibly want to know, all without a lot of unnecessary talking. Thank you so much ❤️
My GAWD!!!!! This is the video that I never knew that I needed!😩This video was so PERFECT 👍🏽. You didn't YELL. You didn't whisper. You didn't play annoying music. The camera was steady. The lighting was top tier. The fonts were pleasant. Light flex on the chopping skills. 😮💨 Mom's wrapping skills are chef's kiss. 💋
This is the best and most well explained from start to finish lemon grass video. This is the inth.. time I came back to watch it every time I wanna propagate lemon grass. Thank you for sharing. It's easy to follow.
Best Lemongrass Video Ever! Thank You! I grew it before, but it eventually died, or was killed (by a weedeater…they didn’t realize it was LEMONgrass, they thought it was a weedgrass 😭) So, this time we are making sure everyone knows this is a FOOD crop, not a weed! I have new stalks and they are rooting. This time will be completely different, even if a little late in the year to start. Since we are in a warmer zone, with a longer growing season and our ground gets very warm, even hot, it should grow just fine. Please tell your mom THANKS! for the lesson on how to twist the leaves into bundles. I never saw that before, but it’s actually very practical! I used to buy it in a baggie full and store in the freezer. The lady who sold it only sold leaves for tea. Years later I learned about it’s use as a flavor, seasoning for foods and that we can eat it too. Now, I learned from your demonstration how to prepare it better, use it and preserve it for use during winter. 🥰
I tried to subscribe , but , TH-cam says I have too many subscriptions !!!! Keep making gardening videos and I'll keep watching !!!! Thank you very much !!!! I'm very interested in lemon 🍋 grass !!!!
This has been an amazing, informative, video. My husband and I started cooking south eastern Asian recipes and it’s led me to discover lemongrass. I would love to try and grow then this year. You’ve showed me how to grow and use them. I’m so excited! Please upload more videos on how to grow ingredients for Asian cooking.
I love propagating lemongrass! I just planted them today and I’m looking forward to making the bundles as your mom showed. I really enjoyed watching her and listening to her dialect as well. Thank you for sharing all the ways! ❤
This video is incredible. I learned so much about every stage of the lemon grass process. I’ve been spending $10 plants from the local Home Depot and I’m so excited to be able to propagate my own lemongrass this fall you took a tremendous amount of time to create this video, thank you very much
I love your video. It was soooo informative and complete to explain to anyone that has not any knowledge of lemon grass. I love the way you explained things.
Excellent video - you literally answered every question I had about growing, harvesting and cooking with it. We're in zone 9/10 in Florida so mine just grows like a weed because of the heat and humidity but I never quite knew when and what to do with it. Thank you so much!
Wow, this is such a comprehensive guide on lemongrass! I love how you covered everything from growing to using it. Your tips on harvesting and storing are super helpful-can't wait to try them out in my own garden. Thanks for sharing this valuable information
Very thorough video thank you! In case anyone is wondering, if you live in zone 9b you can leave lemongrass out in the winter it will die down to the ground but it will come back in spring
Thank you. I've learned so much watching this video. Lemongrass smell so good. It takes me back to my childhood, the smell of lemon grass being used in cooking, especially marinades for meat at my house. Of course, later on as an adult...it is one of the main ingredients in my homemade soaps.
Really good and informative video! One other thing that I do with mine sometimes is chopping the fat stalk ends into rings then drying them out and turning it into a powder by grinding it in my spice grinder/coffee grinder. Useful for a quick dash of lemony flavor without the sourness of lemon. I have a friend who uses the leaves for essential oils (for baking!) but I never got fancy enough to learn how to distill my own oils.
I watched this last year, I’m back to rewatch it. My bundles were not tight. You make it look easy! Hopefully I’ll get better each harvest! Thank you for sharing your wisdom! Blessings!
What an awesome video! I love that you went through the entire process, from propagation to using it in the kitchen. Your mom's bundles are fantastic. I'm definitely going to try that next fall. Thank you for all the work you put in to producing this video. Very helpful!!
I found this very interesting. I’ve always bought lemongrass but never actually using it. now I know it’s many use, I will definitely practice most of what you’ve done and especially, I definitely Will try and grow it in England. Let’s see how this goes. Thank you and your mother for the perseverance of following this journey through the year it took to do thi, plus, for your interest, I watched your video from start to finish non-stop for the 24.48 minutes. Pat on your back. This was excellent. Thank your so much for educating me.
This was a very interesting and informative video from start to finish. The way you broke down each process of growing lemon grass was excellent! And I love how you went on and showed us how I we can use it to cook delicious food. I appreciate the time and effort you put in to 😅bring video to us. Thank you🙏🏻
I grow lemon grass in my geothermal greenhouse so I can have it year round. I started mine from seed. I love how many ways you demonstrated the way you grow, harvest and use this amazing herb. Thank you so much! Blessings. Wendy
Thanks for this very informative video! I started growing lemongrass (zone 7b) to make a refreshing summertime tea from the leaves. I didn’t quite know what to do with the stalks, or how to store them over winter. Now I need more recipes, because I just harvested more stalks than I know what to do with. ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing this information in such a detailed and thorough way! I'm not a great gardener, but watching your video gave me confidence to try to grow lemongrass!
Thank you so muck! Very informative video, I have grown Lemongrass for several years I love it in cooking duck and other poultry as well. I was unaware of all the was to use it & store it so thank you And as always happy growing ❤
Love your video! I just found a pot of lemongrass down in our community garden yesterday! I thought it had all dried out and died in October, but nope, it was nice and healthy. So I watered it yesterday in the greenhouse. So excited for fresh lemongrass this year!
This is EVERYTHING i wanted to know from A-Z, tyyyy! I took on lemongrass as my plant project this year and went all out in my planter beds, and was wondering what to do with the grass leaves- now i know!! the best part about everything you showed is that it's self-sustaining! year after year. wow, amazing
Thank you very much for this informative & detailed video. I'm in zone 4 & have grown lemongrass from seed, overwintering the plants. However, it has never grown as large as lemongrass I buy at Farmers Markets. I look forward to a much more successful harvest next year using your helpful directions.
This is really a comprehensive approach to growing and using the lemongrass. Amazing job, great photography and editing. Thank you for sharing this valuable information. I really enjoyed hearing your mother talk about the lemongrass.
Just found your channel. Excited to learn more. I love seeing you and your mother working together. ❤ Makes me miss working with my mom in her flower garden.
Excellent video and thank you so much for this one. This is the first summer we've planted lemongrass. Now it's November and we were wondering how to harvest, propogate for next year. Awesome timing!
Aboslutely superb. Thank you so much. I learnt more about lemongrass, and the tradition of it in your culture than anything I have ever heard or seen...
Thank you very much for this great, very informative and well done video. I like the fact that you not only explained very well how to grow it, but also how to store, propagate and use it.
I planted my first lemon grass plant this year. It grew to about 5 feet tall. I will be harvesting and dividing and replanting. This video was very informative. Thank you so much.
I have grown them in gallon pots pots inside my window throughout winter, and then bump them up into larger pots for outside on our balcony in the spring. I will trim the leaves for tea at this time, fertilize somewhat heavily when reporting them. Also, i will take bundles i have cooked with aromatically and simmer them further in making vegetable stock from cooking scraps to freeze in plastic bottles recycled. Nothing goes to waste! Such a wonderful plant.
This is such a wonderful video. Thank you so much for doing this. I learned an incredible amount, as well as, enjoying the beauty and artistry in your presentation.

Best best best video by far!!!! Ty so much! ABBA is good. I don't have to watch 20 million videos on lemongrass.

I grow lemon grass in my geothermal greenhouse so I can have it year round. I started mine from seed. I love how many ways you demonstrated the way you grow, harvest and use this amazing herb. Thank you so much! Blessings. Wendy
Beautiful gardener and lemon grass growing in black pot .
Thanks for this very informative video! I started growing lemongrass (zone 7b) to make a refreshing summertime tea from the leaves. I didn’t quite know what to do with the stalks, or how to store them over winter. Now I need more recipes, because I just harvested more stalks than I know what to do with. ❤️
Hi Roland, many thanks for sharing another great dish. Have a great weekend mate

This was very good demostration for lemongrass. Thank you for sharing.
Love your video! I just found a pot of lemongrass down in our community garden yesterday! I thought it had all dried out and died in October, but nope, it was nice and healthy. So I watered it yesterday in the greenhouse. So excited for fresh lemongrass this year!
This video was so very informative and helpful! Thank you, for sharing your knowledge of lemon grass!
Just one afternoon in the countryside can erase all worries. 🍂
I just trimmed up my lemongrass and made some bundles! I love it!
This is EVERYTHING i wanted to know from A-Z, tyyyy! I took on lemongrass as my plant project this year and went all out in my planter beds, and was wondering what to do with the grass leaves- now i know!! the best part about everything you showed is that it's self-sustaining! year after year. wow, amazing
Thank you very much for this informative & detailed video. I'm in zone 4 & have grown lemongrass from seed, overwintering the plants. However, it has never grown as large as lemongrass I buy at Farmers Markets. I look forward to a much more successful harvest next year using your helpful directions.
Thanks for very special inf.

Thank you very much for sharing. This is one of the most informative video about lemon grass that I've seen.
Very helpful video! Thank you, now I know how to use my lemongrass that I grew in my garden
wow very nice...
love your video
I have grown them in gallon pots pots inside my window throughout winter, and then bump them up into larger pots for outside on our balcony in the spring. I will trim the leaves for tea at this time, fertilize somewhat heavily when reporting them. Also, i will take bundles i have cooked with aromatically and simmer them further in making vegetable stock from cooking scraps to freeze in plastic bottles recycled. Nothing goes to waste! Such a wonderful plant.
This is such a wonderful video. Thank you so much for doing this. I learned an incredible amount, as well as, enjoying the beauty and artistry in your presentation.
