Harvested the ginger. The single little knob on the right grew into the rest (2.25# after trimming) In the center is a flower coming up. This is the first time I’ve grown them in ground and I think they did much better - certainly in terms of production.
I have 4 more plants to dig. What was I thinking.
Gonna experiment and leave one and see how it does with the first frost. Then mulch it heavily and see what happens in the spring. Maybe I’ll try harvesting a corm from it in January. Also will leave some lemongrass in same way. The galangal and turmeric are coming inside as their roots are still kinda small - got a late start.
