I grew ginger, galangal and turmeric last year all through late spring until end of summer when plants started dying. I am sharing my experience of where I grew them and the results of the harvest. Witnessing my harvest will help you have a more successful harvest when it’s your turn to grow!

I purchased my initial ginger from the grocery and then planted them in full sun and I had so much that I grated it all and froze it for future use. I just make sure they had water. Zone 11b.

I have been growing ginger. Galangal will get to be 8 ft tall and does not die down. It is harder to harvest because the new shoots grow on the outside. Tumeric grows in layers in pots and is the easiest to grow. Zingerber grow laterally and not vertically unless you place your ginger sideways. Tumeric will sprout a month after harvest. Zingerber, I harvest after it blooms and dies down Nov-Jan. I keep in in a tray in the shade with a little bit of peat moss for moisture. I plant it in pots again around March-April. It can be harvested in 5 months after it starts growing, but has to be harvested once it blooms or it will just crowd and get a lot smaller.

I grew ginger from a root from the store, I keep it in a pot on the front porch where it gets sun 85% of the day. It went wild and I am ready to harvest as they are coming to the top and protuding from the dirt. They are about 2 ft. Tall. I am in zone 7-9, we have been hitting 40 at night so I might be taking it in soon. Thank you! Love the video

We grow ginger in two dollar window boxes on a large window sill beside our birds' habitat protected by 18" wide galvanized wire 1/4" hardware cloth. We have budgies. They love eating the greens off exactly level with the top of the hardware cloth. Yet we still get almost a year's worth of ginger plus rhizomes to plant right back in. The hardware cloth barricade has a scrap of hose along the top edge as a soft landing spot for the birds.

OMG! I want to eat all of those gigantic mulberries! I Live in zone 5 which is not a place where any of those plants will not be happy in the winter. I plant them all in 30 gallon totes. I wheel them outside for the summer, then bring them in and grow them under lights for the fall and winter. They thrive either way, and it's great to be able to have fresh anytime I want it. The taste of all three of these is so much better when harvested fresh then when bought at the store.

Did the lighter turmeric taste a bit like green mango? If so you have what they call Mango Ginger, it's actually a kind of turmeric Curcuma amada. Sometimes it ends up being shipped out with regular turmeric. In the Indian market near me, people will pick thru for one or the other. That's how I learned about it. It's mainly used as a pickle in India
