How Do I Plant Ginger Root

Not just any ginger from the supermarket will do, though. You need a plump, firm piece with little “eyes” on it—those knobby bumps that look like tiny, sleeping potatoes. Avoid anything shriveled or moldy; that ginger has given up on life.

Pro tip: hit up an organic grocery store if you can. Non-organic ginger is sometimes treated with a growth inhibitor to stop it from sprouting. That’s like putting a magical plant in a coma before you even get it home.

The “Soak and Chop” Ritual

Once you’ve got your prize, give it a good soak in warm water overnight. This wakes up those sleepy eyes. In the morning, look for those bumps and cut your ginger into pieces about two inches long, making sure each piece has at least two eyes.

Now, let the cut pieces dry out for a day or two. This forms a little callus over the cuts. Think of it as a tiny, edible bandage to prevent rot.
