I have never grown ginger but I grow canna lilies which are related. Been thinking about trying ginger and turmeric (also related). Can you post a picture of your ginger?
I love canna lilies I've never grown those but I want to try.



The ginger just sprouted this little shoot
I'm growing it for yield this year
Got the rhizome organic, soaked it in water
I plan to put it in a planter on deck to double as privacy sorry can't show the elaborate shoots yet! Can't wait!

I've planted 2 apples and 2 cherries this year. Wish me luck! I'm still not use to the weather here. Hopefully it will stay under 115 degrees F. I planted about 50 bulbs or so last year and they are coming up. Blue iris, parrot tulip, all sorts of unusual stuff. I'm planting garlic, onions, and kale tomorrow. Yay! I love spring!
 
Are you planting anything else? Did you just buy organic ginger in the grocery? I would love to try that.
Yes

Hot peppers:
Habanero, Serrano, ghost, giant Korean chili, hot cherry peppers

watermelon, corn,


Tomatoes;
Ace 55, Amish paste, cherry


Chinese chives and now I'm tired but some more like roots carrots lettuce.
My main goal this year is food yield. Last year I focused on plant care/ gaining experience.

What about you? <3
 
Planting all the usual - broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, kale, onions, peppers, zucchini, cucumber, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, lettuce, tomato... I'm hoping to get all these in the ground by May. My goal is to get them through the summer since last summer there were several days of 115 F and it killed a lot. Including one of my banty chickens.

I also hatched 15 silver laced chocolate orpingtons so far and have 30 more in the incubator to hatch and sell.
 
Juniper, Oreo, Kiwi, and Griffin. Their feathers are astonishingly iridescent! Their father is a white capped black and their mother a silver laced.
